FRIDAY 22nd JUNE

Colours are amazing

All out early to tackle El Questro Gorge walk today. We have to drive over a river crossing about 700mm deep. When we got there some people wouldn’t attempt it so they can actually pay and get transported over it but we all drove through no problems. We did 5.2km to the halfway pool over along a very rocky creek bed. The rest kept going but only Wendy finished it with the boys so glad we didn’t continue, they are all pretty sore and tired. Amazing huge gorge walls and very tall palm trees.

Looking down the gorge
 We drove to Moonshine Gorge and saw a group on their horse back tour. 

Unusual site in the middle of nowhere
On our way back through we had a lot of spectators watching us!!. Bought some lovely boab prints from the artist here.
This afternoon we went on the Chamberlain Gorge cruise with Deb and Jim. Lovely scenery, saw a freshie sunning himself and some little rock wallabies. 

Beautiful clear water of Chamberlain Gorge

Colours amazing on gorge walls
We fed the Archer fish when they spat water at you throw a pellet to them and had some champagne and fruit and then back through the gorge. They told the interesting history of El Questro which was still a working cattle station 29 years ago so we didn’t know about it. This was our first time here.
We had dinner with Deb and Jim as they are moving on tomorrow.
