Day 5 - Karijini

First bit of excitement for the day - a black headed python crossing the road as we head out to the gorge.  Didn't think our first wildlife encounter would be a snake!  Not a kangaroo in sight!

Hancock Gorge today - we are excited and a little bit scared I think! This is a class 4 and 5 so will be a very slow, careful trek for us all. 

Children are lined up in order - one adult at each end and one in the middle.  We head down the steep descent and soon after are waist deep in freezing cold water!  We make it to the Amphitheatre which is beautiful.  Then comes the Spider Walk - OMG so amazing and scary and exciting!  At the end of that we come to Kermit's Pool - hard to describe how beautiful it is!  Back up for lunch and then Handrail Pool in the afternoon.

Single file again as we head down and then pretty scary going through the narrow gorge to get to the handrail part - very brave kids.  Slightly terrified parents!  Handrail Pool was amazing, then another swim through freezing cold waters to get to the end.  I don't think anyone escaped a little stack or slip on the rocks but no blood so all  good!  Simple amazing photos!

Too tired to cook dinner so ate at the restaurant tonight.  Food was so yummy - barramundi, scotch fillet and kangaroo!!
