Mt. Coot-tha Part 2 - Our hike to Simpson Falls

Mt. Coot-tha is paradise just outside Brisbane city limits. As we hiked we could hear lizards scurrying away from the trail, birds calling and water gently rushing over rocks.







The waterfalls we hiked to were a bit of a disappointment (Michigan's falls probably ruined it for us)






The weather forecast was colder weather this week - thankfully the weather man was wrong - we were quite comfortable! Brisbane is wonderful.

















The walk up (and down) Mt. Coot-tha was terrific - even though I'm still wearing the wrong shoes! At least I removed the socks today.

Mt. Coot-tha Part 4 Aboriginal Art Trail

Another trail we climbed/walked today lead us past some Aboriginal art. The trail wound up the mountain, rather steep in areas but the beauty of our surroundings made the trip worth it. I honestly believe Stephanie has some mountain goat in her blood as she had absolutely no problem leading the way and patiently waiting for Steve and me to huff and puff behind her. I've separated pictures of the trail into several different posts, hope you enjoy the photos.
