How much would you pay?
Posted: Tue Aug 11, 2009 2:22 pmJust recently my wife and I went on a little jaunt up to Tamborine, up here in sunny Queensland. As my wife is a keen photographer and wine drinker we picked out some places where she might get some new interesting shots and taste a few different wines as well!
I had heard about Tamborine Rainforest Skywalk from a channel nine program about the Great South East and thought that my wife might get some great pics from the elevated position. If you have a look here : http://www.rainforestskywalk.com.au/
you'll see that it advertises some very beautiful scenes and nature shots. I handed over $37.00 for two of us and off we went.
The result............well...she took two pics and we saw no animals or wildlife at all. Not that it was bad and if you "like" that sort of thing well...it's probably a nice place but I thought it was pretty expensive considering we could have stpped the car anywhere along the road and have seen exactly the same things....lol.
So here is what I have seen in my back yard................
So considering that it cost $18.00 to go on a skywalk and see no nature, how much would you pay to get into my backyard....lol.
