Ashwin discovers banana slugs at Big Basin!

Ashwin's mission in the forest was looking for banana slugs & here he is finding his first one! From that point on we managed to find a few more.

Finally we get to Big Basin!

We had finally decided to do the Big Basin hike & it was just amazing as the forest there is so lush & old. When we had arrived it was so cold that we thought the kids would be freezing but as we went along we warmed up & the hike was crusing along - I think we did about 3 miles & it was just the best hike for kids with a bridge made from a massive tree trunk & loads of fungi along the way. See the beautiful mushroom Holly found it looks like a cupcake with a big wad of cream on top. And there is Ashwin & Holly against one of the furry massive trees in the forest - so beautiful!
