The whole day was perfect. Rasa is a thoughtful, knowledgeable and easy to be with person, who obviously loves what she does. We stated off the day at Daintree Rainforest tour with a guide, with Rasa with us showing us additional things of interest and watching out for us. At the Mossman Gorge and Beach, Rasa brought food for the fish, which allowed us to enjoy watching all the fish swarm to eat. After a lunch (with appropriate food for me, gluten free eater), we went to the beach. After the Aboriginal guides taught us how to spear mud crabs, we walked over a great expanse of sand and shallow water. At the end of the walk, the guides cooked the crabs and periwinkles that were caught and we got to taste them. Rasa did not seem to tire of our questions (and there were a lot of the ). It was a wonderful day!
