After a lunch swim at the rock pool we headed down the road and stopped to walk down the path to Mikey's? Canyon. As we walked we saw an echidna. When it heard our footsteps it tried hard to bury its self. Peaking out every so often to see if the treat had moved on. Kate was feeling like a rest so she sat and waited for it to move.
We was Frank, Megan, Dan and Jemma. Chris was having a moment and stayed in the car.
This gorge was fascinating. High and narrow. The challenge was to walk without falling in the water. There were stepping stones and in places we clung to one side or had our feet on one side and our hands on the other. eventually we stopped and turned round when we would have had to walk in the water. It was only symbolic as the water did not seem to deep ..... or was it...? :)
As we drove along to road we spotted this little fellow wandering along. Not sure whether to intervene in nature. Decided to stop and move him or her off the road. Put him/her/it about 20m off the road at the base of a tree. Hope it survives.
Stopped in at Takarakka Bush Resor. Blow me over if not soon after, the Horky's arrived. We bought ice creams and went to the toilet. The place looks nice. Toilets are clean and grass is green. Apparently fires are allowed. Looks like a nice place to stay.
Looks a lot like Wards Canyon which has a lot of red lichen or what not in the stream. Lewis
