ipswich is a small town about 45mins from brisbane and toowoomba is about 2 half hrs away.both towns are small, even smaller than taiping. along the way you can see farms dotted with cattles and ads selling fresh apples and veggies, tempting! it's hot in the day but it was really cold at night. we went to UQ ipswich campus as well as USQ campus in toowoomba. these campuses are quite isolated, macam UUM. so tabletop mountain is in toowoomba and that's the mountain that we climbed. the view was worth while

p/s: i used lin's digicam so some pictures could be hers.
