A nice antidote to all the electioneering going on yesterday was to head the 25 minutes or so up the road from our place into the Border Ranges National Park. We'd first driven to Nimbin where we intended to vote and also show Tomas the town, but the queue to get in to Nimbin Central School to vote was about 20 people long so we pulled the plug on that (voting, you will be reassured to know at Cawongla school on the way home - we voted absentee) and after a pie and lamington on Nimbin's main street we drove up into the national park. Our first stop was Pinnacle Lookout where an amazing view over the ancient crater and across to Wollumbin/Mt Warning.
We also went for a short walk down into the beech forest where it's cool and damp, even in the middle of summer...
