27th October - Mounting Ngungun

Just a quickie today as we haven't done much since the last post. Got up and left Maroochydore, an ok place but Noosa is so much better, probably the first place we both said we could live in.

We headed up to the Glass House Mountains about 40km away. Once there we walked up Mount Ngungun, which turned out to be a climb rather than a walk near the top, but we made the 278m of it anyways. Once at the top we did the Rocky punch and shuffle after a severe breather and took some pictures of the surroundings, then decided to leave due to the enormous size of the mosquitos flying around up there, they eat their vegemite for breakfast on their weetbix. That's right I said Weetbix because the Aussies spelt it wrong!



After that we drove up to the scenic lookout and had a fancy picnic of bread, cheese, balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Then I fell asleep for the afternoon, it can be handy having your bed right behind you in the car.

That night we stayed in a park site near Australia Zoo, our trip for tomorrow, we also don't have to get up too early to beat the traffic. Though we will probably be up early as there are 5 peacocks and peahens roaming around and they breed them noisy in this part of the world, all night noisy. Took a cool shot of one dude with his feathers out and things, I think it is mating season at the moment.
