There are quite a few walks around town that we decided to do today.
The first was a walk that started at the visitor centre went through the botanical gardens then the trail went up hill and down dale till it came out almost at the lighthouse.
The hill the lighthouse is on is the hill that Captain Cook went on to try to navigate a safe passage through the Barrier Reef after his ship was repaired.
The trail led us into two lovely bays, Finch Bay and Cherry Bay, each time it went down to a bay it had to go back up again, very hilly and rocky but well worth it.
The walk took approx 21/2 hours, we were going to walk up Mt Cook but by the time we had finished the first walk we thought that was enough for the day, Mt Cook is over 430 metres high, a steep rocky challenge.
We drove back up to the lighthouse to take a few pics.
Pulled the pot had our first mud crab.
