As part of Maggie's farewell tour of Oz, we went to Cape Byron, the eastern-most point on the mainland of Australia. We explored the tidepools in the rocks below, where Maggie identified lots of cool invertebrates and sea creatures.
We hiked up the trail to the lighthouse from Watego Bay, and found it was a picture-perfect day to view the very white Cape Byron lighthouse against the deep blue sky.
Resting easy in the cool of the shade in the lighthouse entryway.
It's not everyday you find a kangaroo lounging on the bench beside you! This is in downtown Brisbane, which Dirk and Maggie toured after Dirk secured new passport and his last minute visa for a trip to China.
The King Parrots are very friendly at O'Reilley's Rainforest in Lamington National Park, and everybody benefits from a parrot hat ornament that brightens up their day!
Maggie discovered the art of panoramas on her camera. Here at Lamington campground, our little tents are snuggled next to the trees where the bowerbirds call and the pandemelons rest during the daytime. The mists are settling in for the night in the lush green campground.
A very tall tree in the rainforest, Maggie's picture captures this in a way that we've not been able to! Usually, you can only get a small part of a tree in a snapshot, but this panorama captures its grandeur.
