The days are dwindling, there are only a few left before we head back south and home. Where has the time gone? I have enjoyed just being absorbed in this “good life”.
Before we leave there are a couple of places I want to revisit and one of those is Lake Barrine. It is only a short drive and the Tearoom has a reputation for its Devonshire teas with fresh-baked scones. So this week I will take you to visit this iconic wet tropics area. Maybe I will see a tree kangaroo.
Lake Barrine Tea House
It was not very busy
Most people were sitting out on the deck with the view of the Lake spread before them, but this young fellow is more interested in his phone…
It’s a warm day and the windows are open all round to catch the slightest breeze
Windows make the most of the view. What do you think of their colour scheme?
The scones were delicious but I thought a bit over priced at $15 for one and a half scone each and a cup of coffee. I think you pay extra for the view!
Pelicans float majestically by
Here is Jack admiring the view and the flower beds.
The day lilies are beautiful
On the shady side the orchids are flowering
We go for a short walk along the track around the Lake and find these huge Kauri trees
Looking way up into the canopy
Some information about this area
I didn’t see a tree kangaroo…
