Cairns

Cairns.

A Beautiful Place.

Was there 14 years ago.
When we're not parents.
It was Booming then.

Now, it's very Worrying.

We're at the Great Barrier Reef (www.bigcat-cruises.com.au)
At least Half of the boat seats were Empty!
According to its on board staff, tourists used to be queuing up at the pier!

We're at the Wildlife Safari (www.cairnswildlifesafari.com.au)
There're Only two families (a total of six people watching the Lion Feed!)
There was NO one in the canteen!
According to its canteen staff, it was so quiet she had cleaned all the 10 windows!
Both Sides!
So quiet that she had even washed the floor of the canteen .....AND toilets!

We're at the Hartley's Crocodile Farms (www.crocodileadventures.com)
According to its canteen staff, she had not been so busy for the last 3 weeks.
Even though there were only about 200 tourists visiting.
When at the peak of holiday period, there should be 700 of them!

We're at the GoKartAction (www.makotrac.com)which opens at 1000 hrs daily.
We arrived there at 1130 hrs.
And we're the ONLY tourists in sight upon arrival.

Even being the Only developed country has "technically" avoided a Recession,
Australia is still being hit Hard.

Even though the commodities prices are Rising,
Even though the A$ is hitting a 1-year High,
Even though the house price is Rebouncing,
Australia, like the rest of the World, has yet to experience the Worst.

So, have to be prepared for it.
Have to sell my house first.
Allowing me to have More Cash in hand,
To profit More from the once in a Century Opportunity!

Fate
Acting when others Observing
