Springbrook is a stunningly beautiful area so <strong>to</strong> ignore the “Best of all<br />

Lookouts” turnoff was <strong>to</strong>ugh. Pulling up at the morning tea spot at Goomoolahra<br />

Picnic Area came almost <strong>to</strong>o soon. Walking along the path,<br />

the creek looked beautiful and many <strong>to</strong>ok the time <strong>to</strong> take in distant<br />

views of coastal high rises and <strong>to</strong> admire the impressive Bilbrough Falls<br />

as it tumbles 60m.<br />

A fine spot for a cuppa. It’s beauty inspired further exploration along an<br />

inviting walking track - but I realised restraint and a little more focus<br />

(some of the issues I’m working on) was required. So after another good<br />

chat we saddled up and got <strong>to</strong>pless for the run <strong>to</strong> the Bearded Dragon.<br />

The weather was holding, the road good, the countryside magnificent<br />

and the car a delight. A good place <strong>to</strong> be, it’s hard <strong>to</strong> imagine anything<br />

better.<br />

There were interesting signs announcing more waterfalls, a Skywalk<br />

and Mouse House that triggered a “I should come back and explore”<br />

response. But <strong>to</strong>day we were following the leader.
