Yosemite in Melbourne

My housemate and I like to get out of the city on the weekends and explore the Melbourne surrounds. We had seen a photo of these forests on Instagram and thought they looked like something you would see in Yosemite, so we wanted to check them out.

We wandered through the trees and then down to the close by river. There were a lot of people out looking for rare, edible mushrooms as it has been a wet few days. We spoke to them for a bit and they told us they were using them for their dinner that very night!
