Day 27 - Treetop challenge and Gold Coast
Today we spent our first day in Gold Coast in the mountains. The road up was beautiful but now i also know why people say that the Eastside looks like europe. The mountains looked like the mountains in Sweden, full of trees and green spaces! Started to miss Sweden when I saw that.
Or first stop was the glowworm cave. I thought first it was a cave that you could walk around and climb down, but it was made by humans to preserve glowworms. When we walked into the cave the whole sealing and walls was covered with small lights. We couldnt take photos in there because the bright light would put the worms to sleep because they fall asleep because they think its sunlight. If that happens all the time they would starve. Glowworms live in dark and wet caves and they do small strings like silk to capture food. Almost like spiders do nets.
After we went on a skywalk. We got a really good look over the forest and the nature. When we walked it of course started to rain and it kept in raining on and of the rest of the day.
After the walk i went to do the treetop challenge. I was nerves that they would say we couldnt do it because of the heavy rain. But luckily they didn't! It was so much fun to climb and swing in the trees. And it was an adventure and a challenge for me to do.
