THE ART OF WALKING ON WATER

 
While attending the recent  Cairns ECOfiesta in the Cairns Cruise Liner  Terminal ,  Little Darwin came across  a  demonstration of Flyboarding  which wowed onlookers. The exhaust from the  jet  boat driven  up the  tube elevated the  rider  who delivered a  spectacular  performance ; taking  a  dive , he emerged  from  the water  holding  a  selfie. The  festival , with more than 100 stalls , brought  together  the environment , community and   the economy  in  one special event . In attendance  were representatives  of local   wildlife attractions , organisations which take action to protect the environment, information on   better water  usage ,  prevention of  the spread of noxious weeds . New products were displayed and  food samples offered .   One  stall  was  run  by  the  ALP . Recently the  Labor   Environment  Action  Network  (LEAN) ,  which  is increasing  activities  in  North  Queensland ,  opened a new  branch in  Townsville .
