My Glorious and Esk

We had lunch at a roadside restaurant on Mt Glorious. Maiala Rainforest Teahouse and Restaurant is very popular with motorcyclists and we would highly recommend it for friendly service, the quality of food and coffee, and as a bonus there are flocks of beautiful birds who come to feed in the garden ... including kookaburras (as pictured).

Chris and Michael decided to take us out on a day trip to visit sites on Mt Glorious and to visit the village of Esk.

Located 110 km north-west of Brisbane and 70 km from Ipswich, Esk is one of those pleasant, green, leafy and historic towns which, although gracious and stylish, appears to be little more than a main street and a few houses. It nestles under Glen Rock and Mt Esk on the Brisbane Valley Highway.

On Mt Glorious, we went for a walk through the forest reserve to visit a waterfall.
