Elim Beach, Cape Bedford, FNQ

Finally Christians important letter arrived in Cooktown; we spent 4 (nice) days waiting so he can fill in a form to prove that he is alive, he has to visit the police to sign it. It is a nice town, we wandered around looking at everything.
Yesterday we left for Endeavour Falls Tourist Park where we stayed the night. The falls are behind the park just a short walk down to the river. Unfortunately one can no longer swim as crocs have come to live there but we did walk out over the falls and I did not JUMP!
Today we came our to this lovely beach camp on a bay under Cape Bedford, facing north. The tide is out and the Coral Sea is around a kilometre from the shore. The trades are blowing again but we are quite sheltered here.
We will stay here a couple of days and unfortunately for Christian it is on aboriginal lands and there are alcohol restrictions (1 bottle wine) and he only had about 1/2 bottle in his cask so he has nearly run out.
