Wednesday - Gold Coast to Mount Cotton (Brisbane)

Today was an exciting day…as tonight a real bed beckoned!!!

We got up and checked out of our campsite, driving the short length up and into the Tamborine Mountain Range.

We spent the morning doing a hike to Witches Falls, 3.1 km in length and winding down through tropical rainforests.

In the afternoon we drove to The Knoll and did the Cedar Creek Circuit hike, walking down through brooks and rainforest to Cameron Falls.

After some cheese and biscuits at a picnic spot we drove back to the highway and headed a short distance north, stopping for a quick browse at a shopping mall before driving onwards to Mount Cotton, and Elaine and Rob’s humble abode.

Strangely enough the larger area where they live is called Carbrook (minus one ‘r’ from the one we all know), and the lovely estate is a quiet retreat after the Gold Coast.

We arrived at 4pm and sat chatting for the evening, catching up and sharing stories.
