Sitting around the camp fire

There's few things better than camping next to an open fire. Beyond proving my manly instincts to create a fire, and the smoke keeping insects at bay, nothing beats having your legs slowly toasted as the embers burn.

Simply put, it's not so bad to be returning to camping after our wee escape yesterday. We've edged slightly north in the Queensland hinterland to Mount Tamberine, and have been surprised at just how cool it is, given that we're closer to the tropics than before. The rainforests are still there, as are the numerous waterfalls, with one even hinting that the elusive platypus were to be found nearby, although we settled for spotting a koala dozing up a tree.

Anyway, the embers are smouldering now, and the moon is poking out between the clouds, time to get to bed!
