Goin' bush...


Sunday was a family day where we decided to go for a bit of a hike (bit - being the operative word) as it was a very short hike! Anyhoo off we went on the Stevens Creek trail out to check out the reservoir in amongst the valley. It was a very full reservoir, unlike some of the reservoirs in Australia at the moment. There was even a guy fishing but there was this sign that said not to eat the fish due to the amount of mercury in the water - yikes! We ended up at a picnic ground for lunch & had some stale tortilla wraps and Ashwin pigged out on his usual fare. While we were at the picnic ground we saw this car stop by a huge garbage bin & then they got out of the car to take a look inside the bin (this was where Ashwins poo nappy was!!) and when they had enough they played the American national anthem and saluted to the sky. Very strange behaviour so we just power walked the hell outta there!!
