We make an early start today, coffee, fruit and 20 laps of Mossman pool. We have an appointment at the Iveco Service Agent in Cairns at 10.30am so we are on the road just after 9am. We arrive at JSC Diesel on time hoping for the best. By lunch time they have diagnosed a bearing failure most likely the radiator fan, but they will have to pull the front end down to confirm. Be back tomorrow morning at 8am.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

So we find ourselves an overnight a kilometre away. Caravilla has a nice pool and plenty of shade, so we settle in, have a swim and relax. In the late afternoon we take a short walk to Stocklands Cairns for a little shopping and a takeaway for dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next morning we drop the Jayco off at JSC and Uber it to the city. Our very chatty driver Peter, drops us off at the marina so we explore Cairns starting from there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
