Yes a timely trip back to the stone age when large reptilian predators used to tear through the jungle before being wiped about by the ice age.....

A lovely place and the Indian restaurant has got a new cook ! Bonus, the fresh caught prawns on the river park is always a favorite .

Apologies for comparing Innisfail to Jurassic Park. That place had something exciting happen there once.

When Innisfail gets a stronger local economy it will bloom. It's just that I cannot see that happening during the nation wide recession and housing crash.

Electricians,plumbers,painters , all flat out , banana farmers crying all the way to the bank, things are a lot better in innisfail than people think .its just the old cry in their beer brigade that always miss the bus , there everywhere.

Oh Ted how you jest? Exactly what evidence do you have that the town has a functioning economy? Wouldn't electricians and painters have decided not to charge huge rates that nobody can afford?

In the mid summer's heat a haze descends over the town. Then and there you will see how dead and ugly a rural town can be.

Dirty little town ..rubbish every wear litters the town ..schools with mold over there buildings looked like they havnt been washed for years and bissnesses that never return your calls .would hate to think of the bissness lost in that town ..found its easer to go to Cairns for you bissness..you get alot more intelligence from ppl

Peter Christiansen, if you are going deride people for being unintelligent , at least learn to spell.
I have not lived in Innisfail, but have visited and understand the difference, having lived and worked in many parts of Australia.
It seems to me that Innisfail has plenty going for it, not the least of which is the wonderful Crown Hotel.

I have not lived in Innisfail, but have visited and I am aware that the two things can be very different, having lived and worked in many areas of Australia. It seems to me that Innisfail has plenty going for it, not least of which is the wonderful Crown Hotel.
