We were driving second, which meant we watched our friends’ four wheel drive sliding crazily along the muddy track before we followed them. It didn’t fill me with confidence. I don’t think I particularly enjoyed clinging on in the passenger seat as we drove through some particularly steep and muddy sections – I mean, it’s a bit of an adrenaline rush, but it’s also fairly terrifying, feeling the car slip about underneath you. I enjoyed the places we got to though – standing on the side of a hill looking out over the Maleny valley.
I don’t actually enjoy that sort of travel either – I’d much rather walk and feel an exhausted sense of achievement upon reaching a lovely place.
