Mount Dandenong - The Journey Begins

This is actually my second attempt conquering this mountain. The first one went well but unfortunately during that time, I wasn't wearing any proper attire. It is winter, and furthermore it is raining and I'm stuck with a normal riding jacket. I even had to put my hand near my bike muffler just to warm it.

My first attempt. The skies starting to get dark.

Darkness looms but there is still some ray of light... Hrmmm...

This is my second attempt. Nice clear skies. We can even see the city from here.

The Wishing Tree. There is a story behind it. Not sure whether it is a true story or not.

Cafe straight ahead.
