My partner and I had a short stay on Magnetic Island late last year. We’ve been there once before, years ago, when we had three kids under four. This time, the trip wasn’t so hectic as it was just the two of us.
We stayed in Horseshoe Bay and went past these beautiful paperbarks a couple of times each day: at the start of a run in the early morning light; on the way to and from the bus stop during the day, and on our way to the pub or cafe for dinner. No matter what the time of day, these trees always looked glorious, abundant and strong.
