Always looking for an excuse to wander around The Channon Market, we took Malte and Francesco there last Sunday. No sooner had we walked through the gate than we looked up in this gum tree and saw this fella having a snooze. It was the first time that either had seen a koala in the wild so it was a great start to the day. The Markets were there colourful, crazy, best.
We headed into Nightcap Range National Park, along Terania Creek, to enjoy the cool of the rainforest walk up to Protestors's Falls. Obligatory group shot.
Malte "I'm the King of the World" Neumann.
Malte and I walked behind the falls for this nice shot. It's been very dry up here - we are parched and aching for some good rain of 100mm or more, so there's not a lot of water coming down the Falls at the moment.
After our walk, we walked up to a picnic area in the car park. Malte went ahead because he was keen to go to the 'public toilet' when all of a sudden I heard "Kevin, Kevin, come quick...I think it's a crocodile?"....two big fat lace monitors or tree goannas which were quite obvious the lords of the picnic area were sunning themselves in the afternoon sun. One of them wandered right up to us in the hope, no doubt, of a tasty morsel.
