Day 18 Saturday 14th February
Slow start to the day and then a walk towards Mount Rowland for a couple of hours. Interesting walk with the fauna changing from wet to dry rain forest and then the cooler plants of the higher regions. We returned to the van for lunch and then left to check out some markets at Sheffield. Sheffield is known as the town of the Murals and they adorn the walls around the town centre. We then ventured on and decided to check out one of the high land lakes, Lake Arthur, a nice drive up with amazing panoramic views of the valley. The lake and the camp site however were ordinary, lots of campers with little room and quite dusty. This is a Hydro lake and I counted 20 overhead power lines adorning the views from the campsite. Many persons had small boats and were most likely here for the fishing rather than the view. Anyway we found a spot to rest for the night and will be off early in the morning.
