My contribution for this week’s challenge…
Descent
~~~~~
A few years ago, while Cairns, we decided to…
take a trip on the Skyrail, to Kuranda village on the Cairns’ Tablelands.
The day began with a rail journey up a mountainside…
past waterfalls in a rush to…
to descend to the sea.
On and on we ascended the tablelands…
a rearward glance reveals one’s ascent is the opposite of a descent.
A pleasant few hours in Kuranda village and it was time to return to Cairns.
Our journey down from the tablelands also required some ascents…
and far below us the train was making another ascent….or was it a descent?
Up and over and…
down we went, slowly descending…
passing over roads and vehicles descending in another manner…
until at last the end was in sight.
And so ends the descent and our Skyrail outing to Kuranda.
Well worth a visit should you be in the Cairns area.

I love that train, but have no stomach for cable cars, so always go back on the train too 🙂 Thank you for dropping in on an evolving scientist too.

Thank you. The best part of the day was discovering one of my siblings has a fear of heights. Lucky he is old enough to take that which he often dishes out! 🙂
