Sunrise was about 5am. Lots of unfamiliar bird sounds greeted us this morning.
By 7:30 we were on our way again, picking our way back out over the rocky track. We drove back through the huge entrance gate
and retraced our way through Ballandean station ( established 1840). Driving in yesterday through two sets of station gates with no indication that we were on the right track for the park had been a bit disconcerting.
Just out of Warwick we passed a solar farm spreading out over what would have been the size of several paddocks.
We stopped and walked the rainforest circuit as we came through Main Range national Park. There have obviously been fires here too and there was evidence of fresh growth in the rainforest. Ancient Hoop Pines tower beside the pass.
We had some fun and games as we headed into Brisbane and finally arrived at Pip and Andy’s just after midday after one unexpected tunnel drive (Clem7) and a deviation close to the city centre.
It was very good to catch up with Pip, Andy and boys plus Mary and Joc
We enjoyed Pizza and cider for tea nearby on Oxford st at Revel microbrewery before setting up our swags on the back lower deck for the night.
