Elderly woman left behind by cruise ship on Great Barrier Reef island found dead
Australian authorities are investigating after an 80-year-old woman who was left behind on a Great Barrier Reef island by a cruise ship was found dead.
The woman had been hiking on Lizard Island, 250 km (155 miles) north of Cairns, with fellow passengers from the Coral Adventurer cruise ship on Saturday but is believed to have broken off from the group to have a rest.
No, it's not really why I'm not going on a cruise.
Light rain showers and a moderate breeze, 5 - 14℃.
