Mt. Glorious

On Sunday, Uncle Errik and Larissa took us hiking at Mount Glorious, in D'Aguilar National Park. Lucky for us, the rain let up on Sunday, so it was a lovely day to head outside and enjoy some more of Queensland.
The national park is only a short drive from Brisbane, but you feel like you're in a completely different land. Much like our hike at Springbrook National Park, Mt. Glorious is a rainforest wonderland. We did a lovely 4km walk through the lush vegetation while the birds were singing and chirping all around us. I made sure to take as many pictures as I could, but my favourite is this one of a tree root that looks like a snake. It startled me for a moment when I first saw it!

I love walking in the rainforest. I love how the trees stretch up so high and block out the sun, how the birds chirp and sing to you the whole time you're walking, and how the moisture just hangs in the air. There's always something to see and the smells are so fresh and invigorating. I just have to make sure to watch where I'm going because there were a few times I tripped on a tree root. But, I managed to avoid falling on the wet ground, so I would call this adventure a success!
