This morning we headed out on our walk early as it gets hot quickly when the sun comes up. We started by walking along the top of the gorge. The white gums against the red are spectacular. We then headed down to Fortescue falls, we kept going around to Fern pool as we come back past the falls. Fern Pool is an important women's Aboriginal site so they ask you to swim quietly!
There were hundreds of fish waiting to greet us as we got in. It was beautiful swimming in the fresh water, if a little cold! After a couple of swims we moved on to the falls pool. Again we all had another swim. Although this pool was a little cooler the kids preferred it!
We then walked and rock hopped through the bottom of the gorge to the Circular Pool! Beautiful! We were already to have a swim here too, even though it would be colder again but as we were about to hop in we discovered hundreds of leeches so decided to give the swim a miss.
We then did the steep climb out back to our van for a quiet evening watching the scenery and stars. I am amazed at how little wildlife we have seen
