A walk in Sherwood Forest

Sherwood is a suburb of Brisbane, in which there is a forest. Now known as Sherwood Arboretum, it was first planted in 1925, and so is coming up for its centenary. A main feature is its avenue of Kauri Pines (Araucaria robusta). 

The Brisbane retirement village into which we've recently moved has a weekly walking group, which heads out at 6.30am every Tuesday. We were welcomed this morning as the group explored the Arboretum, followed by breakfast at a local bakery.
