Our plans for today are to visit Esk and the Vivenhoe Dam.
We travelled to Esk via the Mount Glorious Road and we found three geocaches along the way. The two nearest to Mount Glorious Village are the two highest geocaches that we have found to date.
The road was very windy and very steep. However, once we were over the top and back on the flat the drive was very pleasant.
We arrived in Esk and as is our like, found the local bakery and bought some pies for lunch.
We took our pies to Lakeview Park, a few kilometers out of town, whewre there just happened to ba another geocache. Having consumed our pies, we quickly found and logged our find.
We then drove on to Vivenhoe Dam and visited the interprative centre where we were able to obtain details about the construction of the Dam and how the Dam not only provides a water supply to SE Queensland but alos is used to mitigate flooding.
Once we had viewed all the displays we commenced the drive back to Arana Hills, having to again go up and down Mount Glorious Road.
We returned around 4.30pm.
We decided to have Chinese take-away again, from the local shop down the hill.
