Hey, everyone! Welcome to a travel vlog that I'm doing? I haven't done a kind of
video like this in forever. But I'm in Cairns, Queensland, Australia, which is
like Northern Australia that's super tropical and has really nice beaches, and
I'm here on vacation with my beautiful girlfriend, and thought I'd make a little
video about it. I didn't bring my computer, so I'm not doing any working at
all except for this vlogging, but it's such a nice fun relaxing
experience, I thought might as well take some video of it and share it with you
all. So we got here two days ago and we just had like a chill day, stayed in a
nice hotel, it was really fun.

Fiona, off-screen: You don't have any body! It's just shoulders and legs!
And then yesterday we went snorkeling and scuba
diving in the Great Barrier Reef, which was so cool and so fun.
♪ back into the river, swim a little deeper. I don't need to breathe, with my head under water. ♪
*upbeat music*
♪ I know it's not easy. I know we could dive in slow. We're not like the others. They do not need to know. ♪
♪ You said you'd fall with me. No matter how deep it goes. With my head under water. ♪

It's just been so lovely, and now we're staying in like the nicest Airbnb I've
ever stayed in. And so I want to show you around this place a little bit. So we're
out here, and there's all this greenery around us. There's this little pond, and
then look at this fucking view. Inside here, we have a really cute kitchen and
then out there is some nice couches and a hot tub. Over here is a gorgeous fancy
bathroom with two waterfall showers, and then, we make it over to the bedroom -- look
at how the green leafy-ness outside, and then, just a giant window that opens out
here. This is where we had breakfast this morning. And then just -- this is the view
from our bedroom. Where we're just sleeping. Oh my god it's so nice. So yeah, that's
our place. I'm probably not gonna be doing a whole lot of talking and that
kind of vlog. I'll probably be doing lots of montages and pretty views because I'm
just trying to relax this trip, and I'm not trying to do a whole lot of work, and
so I just kind of want to show you what I'm here doing with my girlfriend, so
enjoy the rest of our amazing vacation.

Alright, so yesterday, we just had a really chill day. Went into town for a little
bit, played some cards. And today, we're going to the Daintree forest. We're currently
driving along the ocean -- it's super pretty. Show 'em, Fi. Oh, it's all blown out.
Fiona: I think it's blown out. Oh no, there it is. Ayeee! Riley: Yay! Pretty ocean!
So we're gonna go to a rainforest. Apparently -- Australia has rainforests --
and do a little hike. Do a little swim. It should be pretty. You excited, babe?
Fiona: I'm excited! But I look gross right now, so I'm not putting myself on camera.
Alright, let's go.

We've made it to a creek in Mossman Gorge, and Fiona's gonna have a little
swim. Hi, babe. I'm just up on some rocks because I don't want to go swimming here.
But I'll probably go swimming at a different place.
*upbeat music*
Fiona: Oh god. Oh my god. Yep. Ahhhh.
Riley: Ta-da! Sticks the landing! Fiona: *laughs* Cutie!
Hey, what's good, it's your girl, Fiona. *Laughs*
Look how thick my legs are now. Wait, where is it? There it is. Thiiiick.
There were these like -- we think they were ants, but with like very long legs so they looked like spiders.
We called them spider ants -- yeah, spants for short.
Fiona: Just a little nickname we came up for them, in the forest.
They were terrifying, and they were everywhere at the place we were swimming,
but now we're walking to another swimming place where hopefully there are fewer spants.
*upbeat music*
There's a turkey just hanging out, by our Airbnb. Look at its little red head.
*upbeat music*
We just made our way down this hill, and now, oh my god.
Fiona: *gasps* Look through there! Riley: What?
Fiona: It's a swimming area. Riley: Oh my goddd.
*upbeat music*
Fiona: *Laughs*
Can it see the sweat? Can you see my sweat?
*upbeat music*
Riley: So, we just got to Elinjaa falls, the third waterfall.
There's just two chickens hanging out.
Fiona: You're really getting a good animal experience here, aren't you?
Riley: What's up, dude? Oh my god. Hi, chicken.
Hello. You coming to hang out? Oh, you're a rooster, I'm so sorry -- I'm so
sorry I called you a chicken.
Fiona: He's coming to fight. Riley: He's really coming to fight.
Riley: Oh my god. Fiona: I'm scared.
Should I roll the window up? Are we gonna get -- are we in the wrong neighborhood?
Fiona: *Laughs*
*upbeat music*
Fiona: Oh boy, oh boy. *waterfall sounds, water splattering*
*upbeat music*
We finished swimming, but the chickens are still here in the parking lot, just
hanging out -- right next to the car. Can I help you, sir?
I think we're being attacked by chickens right now. We're in the car and they're circling us. Ahh!
Riley: Go away! Fiona: Bye, friends!
Riley: They're like following us. Fiona: Laughs.

So that's the end of the video thank you all for joining me for this
little vlog. It was a lot of fun -- did you have fun, babe?
Fiona: Yeah! Riley: What are -- what are these angles you're doing?
Fiona: Being creative. Riley: Stop.
Both: *Laugh* Fiona: What was your favorite part of the trip?
I really liked scuba diving. It was like terrifying at first,
but after I got used to it, it was really great. What about you?
Fiona: I -- that was such a presenter voice. "What about you?"
Riley: You're like the -- just the camera person
behind the camera, like, giving me suggestions.
Fiona: I think my favorite part was... I'm gonna do two. Riley: Ooohh.
Fiona: The first is scuba diving because that was sick. And the second would be yesterday
when we swam in that waterfall.
Riley: That waterfall was super cool, we had it all to ourselves. It was gorgeous.
Fiona: It was super pretty, yeah. Riley: It's been such a good trip, it's so
warm and nice, but I'm excited to get back to Sydney, and back to our lives. But this has been so relaxing.
Fiona: This is a relaxed bean in her natural habitat. *Laughs* Also tell them about --
did you tell them all the animals you saw? Riley: We've seen so many animals. I saw a
bush turkey, we saw wild chickens, we were attacked by a spider last night, and I almost died.
Fiona: It was just a huntsman, it's fine. Riley: There was a flying cockroach.
Fiona: Oh, that was disgusting. Riley: There was a cane toad, which I thought
was a cute frog, and Fiona said was a pest. Fiona: Yes, are you forgetting the
fucking dinosaur that we saw? Riley: Dinosaur?
Fiona: Yes, that huge lizard. Riley: Oh, there was like a big lizard over there. Yeah.
Fiona: Yeah, like right over there. Riley: That's true. That did happen.
Fiona: Kangaroos. Riley: We saw some baby kangaroos along the road.
Fiona: So many! Riley: Saw some cows along the road.
Fiona: Omg every time we would pass -- if we passed cows or horses, every single time, Riley got it wrong.
Every -- like there were 2 times where you were right. Riley: They look similar when they're far away.
Fiona: It was hilarious. She'd be like, "Look, cows!" And I'd be like, "Riley, those are horses."
Riley: I'm attacked.
Fiona: You tried. You did your best, babe.
Anyways, that's the whole vlog. Thank
you all for joining us as we visited visited the Great Barrier Reef and some
rainforests and stuff, and I'll see you next time!
Fiona: Also there's an Instagram highlight on NeonFiona on Instagram called TNQ.
Yeah, if you want to go to Fiona's Instagram, it'll be linked in the description.
Fiona: I mean, there's content there!
It's a really great Story, it's another medium for exploring this trip. *Laughter*
Alright, thank you all so much, byee!
