SHE
SAID:
We
left Atherton with sunny skies, had a short drive ½ way around Lake
Tinaroo, then had to double back as the rest of the road was closed.
The
rain started as we arrived at Malanda & the waterfalls there. It
continued all the way to Millaa Millaa & the 3 waterfalls there
too. We had a quick look at the Millaa Millaa, Zillie & Ellinjaa
Falls, not wanting to get too wet, and were quite surprised to see
people swimming at several of them despite the temperature being about 19C!
We
got back to Tully after 3pm; it was a sunny afternoon there!
Lake Tinaroo near Atherton |
Malanda Falls - where kids were swimming, Brrr.
We were surprised by the swimming area & that the road went obviously across the top of the falls
|
The very popular Millaa Milla Falls |
The hard to see Zillie Falls |
My favourite falls of the day were these -
Ellinjaa Falls
|
South Johnstone River Lookout |
Lake Tinaroo was a surprise. It was established to irrigate tobacco crops in the district. The road around it being closed was annoying, as there was no indication about road closures until you got half way around the lake. Once again, poor communication.
