Tunnel Creek

A few hours drive from Fitzroy Crossing is tunnel creek. Dad, jess and I were brave enough to do the tunnel creek walk. The dirt road was corrugated and there were about six river crossings. The dirt road was in the middle of a cattle station so we saw lots of big bulls cows and calves. Dad loves boabs probably a bit more than he should so you could imagine how exited he was when we found a forest of them. He was out taking photos while Jesse and I stayed in the car playing D.S.



The walk was 1.7 k under a huge rock hill and we had to walk through knee deep water with a torch because it was completely dark at times. We also saw one ghost bat hanging from the roof of the tunnel.





At the end of the tunnel Jesse and I had a swim in a billabong.

    thanks guys - a much needed chuckle (all out laugh too hoo hooohohooo).

    Aaarrrrrgh. My sis missed out on the hotel d'hall - unfortunately Dad has decided that ICU in the RAH is the place to be - so the Nelson-Williams (and Clarke) crew are all here in Adelaide keeping him company till he decides that morphine isn't so much fun after all and he'd really rather be some sweeter place.

    Mmmmmm.

    Much love to you all
