An Easy Day

We got up late, to the screech of thousands of cockies as previously discussed.

We had decided on a slack day, so we went into Hall's Gap to check out the info centre. Then headed up to Wonderland. The return walk to The Pinnacle was only a little over 4k so we decided it was a goers.

We walked up through The Grand Canyon and Silent Street. Pretty much as I remembered. Quite warm walking up hill. The walking poles, which we tried for the first time were pretty good.








The view from the top was of course as awesome as we recalled. Wandered down getting hotter and yearning for lunch. Of course we had forgotten to buys rolls, so our sandwich stuff was not much use. Back to Hall's Gap where we bought rolls, lunched, and had an ice cream.

 
The afternoon was a knee recovery session. We went to the two easy look-outs, that is no walking, Boroka, looking east, and Reed, looking south. We also did the short walk to The Balconies. I seem to recall them being called the Jaws of Death. At any rate we did not go on them , we left that top the young 'uns. We didn't even build one of those Buddhist stone piles. They were everywhere, particularly on the walk to the balconies.



Came back to digs and had a swim in the pool to try to ease the crick in my neck. Yes it is still there!

See an easy day.
