There were some fascinating tree roots in this area but this was my favorite.

Oh oh!! A roadblock!! Now do I have to climb over or under or go around? Hmmm!!

What a pretty place this was to have a picnic. I must remember to bring some sandwiches with me next time.

The Rock Fig is a most unusual tree as it onlt grows on/in rocks. Some of them can be huge too and I wonder how they are propagated. I have taken some cuttings and hope one starts growing as it would make a wonderful bonsai.

The roots find the tinest crevase in which to anchor itself.

A spittle bug!! These are such interesting critters. They make this by rubbing a secretion with their legs and then live in the middle of it to hid away from predators. What amazes me is that they are so small, who could ever think of making a meal of it? It would be like us taking one crumb of bread!! :)

I disturbed this one so it could come out while I took a picture of it. It is all of about 4mm in length.

Along the path, this small pine tree was starting out its life.

And so the path ended and it was time to go home. I was lucky on this trip and only went back with one small injury and hardly dirty at all!! :) Next time I am there it will be the rainy season so I will probably get home filthy as usual. :)
