The heavy, dense smell. The ground and fecundity.
The filtered light. Dappled greens with a splash of red berries.
And the dripping water. The sound of little streams, or the heavy rush of a nearby waterfall.
A Rainforest.
Springbrook.
We camped nearby for two days. We saw a red bellied venemous snake sunbathing on our way to the amenities. A magpie tried to steal our beans and a scrub turkey strutted its stuff near our car.
One of the family activities that suits us all, is walking/hiking along a trail. Jett's motor mouth is let free range. He plays games in his head, impersonating different characters from KND. Albert likes to oooh and ahhh about the creepy crawlies and I just LOVE the close ups - photos that is.
We're staying on the Gold Coast, and Springbrook is just a 40 minute drive away. Its accessible and has lots to offer everyone. I'm sounding a bit like I've got a stake in the National park, but, I was sincerely impressed with the beauty of the place.
If you're near by, or thinking of passing through, take a peek.
