We spent the afternoon at Rainbow Beach. It was a sunny day filled with an Australian geography lesson, wading, surfing, laying out and a picnic lunch.
The climb was ridiculously steep...to the point where we were pulling ourselves up the "path" using tree trunks and branches...anything that we could get our hands on really. I was a bit nervous about going back down, but it end up being so much easier that I had anticipated. There was a comment book hidden in a secret place at the top. Little Mars has made her place in Mt. Cooroy history.
We started the morning at the Eumundi Markets and then headed to Mt. Cooroy for a bit of hiking. There wasn't much of a trail, just a few scattered stones we had to follow to the top. We felt prepared considering we each had a snickers bar. James noticed that everyone that makes it back from hiking always survives because they had a snickers bar.
