Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Fauna
Four days at Palm Bay was just the right amount of time. From there we headed to Brisbane for four nights. The plan was to explore some of the bush walks a bit further out of town, since we've both been to Brisbane a number of times before.
On our first day we headed to Springbrook National Park and did a few of the shorter trails, since Raewyn didn't have appropriate footwear to tackle the Warrie Circuit and my toes were still recovering from rubbing on the flippers. Instead, we did the Twin Falls loop walk and visited a few other lookouts (which weren't much to write home about). From there we drove a short distance to the Purling Brook Falls, which were even more impressive. We had just enough time left in the day to drive out to the Natural Bridge.

On another day we drove down to the Gold Coast. There was a sculpture festival taking place on the beach, so we had a wander around that for a few hours and had lunch. After lunch we drove to Mermaid Beach which had an interesting-sounding mini golf course - I was determined to make the most of things I can't do in PNG.
