At this stage we are tired, dirty and exhausted from the last 10 days or so travelling across the Gibb River Road. It has been a journey that has been well worth while and I would recommend it to anybody to do it. We are in desperate need of a shower and a washing machine as we have run out of clean clothes and we look like absolute grubs. We had a relaxed start to the day today and we left the campsite at 9.15am heading towards Windjana. Along the way we made a stop at Lennard Gorge. This gorge was most impressive. Looking down on it from the top was amazing. We arrived at Windjana early afternoon and started to do the walk to the gorge as we thought it was a short one. We really liked what we were seeing and got to the first stop off point and decided that we would do the whole 7km walk the next morning instead. So we then headed to Tunnel Creek pictured above. This was almost scary to start off with. Mel did not want to let go of my hand. It was pitch black in places and you could only see as far as your torch light would shine and you were wading through water waist deep in some sections. Apparently fresh water crocs inhabit the area but we did not see any and thought that the water would be too cold for them anyway. Part of the tunnel collapsed a few years ago and sunlight filters through into the water and Chris captured a nice shot of the reflection as seen above.
Love the sunlight in the cave photo. Can see a gallery developing for a wall at your place.
ReplyDeleteMost definitely. We have seen lots of very beautiful places and we have many fantastic photos that the blogspot page is not doing justice too. Hope your starting to get excited about your trip, and hopefully you will be able to do the same as far as blogging so that we can keep up with what you are upto. Take care and see you in a week.xx
