Day 98 - The Drip

Sunday morning after an excellent brekkie - with eggs!! - Tony, Ann, and I headed to a natural area about a half hour outside of Mudgee called "The Drip" where a path that runs along Goulburn River. It's called the drip because all along the hike there are great big walls of stone that are all dripping! There were lots of birds and sunshine and it was an excellent hike. On the way back I got to save a turtle (side neck!) crossing the road - but it wouldn't come out for a picture. Afterwards we come back for a big lunch before heading back to Camden. I spent the evening writing a few more sentences in the dreaded paper and watching some more TV.

The Path

You can see the old riverbed sediment embedded in the rock layers

More path

Hmm you can see the head in my picture and I've forgotten the name now - Spine tail skink or something...

Some unknown lizard

swamp on a wall - there were frog on the walls and everything (not that I could get to them!)
