Made it to Cairns today after a bumpy start. I missed my ferry to the airport, entirely my fault, and of course I had checked in my bag so the bag went to the airport without me. The ferry staff was awesome, got me on the next ferry to a nearby marina, met me at the marina and took me to the airport terminal where they had already collected my lonely bag. I got checked in and on the plane before they closed the doors, whew!!! Plan B was to have to take a bus to Cairns, a 10 hour ride, ugh. And....this morning, as I was checking out of my hostel, I was thinking how wonderful everything has been since Day 1 (2 months now) and how flawless my travels have been, no lost luggage, no missed flights, no delays, no cancellations and so far, I have not lost a single thing along my journeys. I probably need to quit thinking, I'm jinxing myself!
