Sunshine Coast

Eastern Water Dragons are fairly common in SE Queensland and can be found sunning themselves by local rivers and creeks, or in this case, in the beautiful gardens of the Spirit House in Yandina.  The Thai food here is soooo delcious!  They also take cooking classes if you are keen to learn the house secrets.  It is about an hour and a half drive north of Brisbane in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland.

Room was spacious and ready when we arrived. Breakfast was good but not much selection of cooked items. Staff were great. Only complaint is that the toilet in our room hadn’t been cleaned from the previous person.

Tucked away near the township of Buderim in the Sunshine Coast of Queensland, Australia, is a nature reserve and falls.  With the area once being private land, it is now available for all to meander by The creek, take a hike, have a picnic or even a splash in the rock pools.  A great way to spend your time whilst visiting the area. #green #challenge #sweepstakes #australia
