Running Waters

Running waters, it`s not like the word says. There is no running water available. Just a big pole of water, i have been there twice. On an Easter weekend and later one with my sis. The first time , the water was alright, but the second time , it was a dark muddy large pool, about 30 cm high. So ,you have to be lucky to have a good swim over there. The view is great. The rock or little mountain nearby is easy to climb.

It`s a good overnight on a long weekend, what we did on Easter 2007. We drove to boggy hole, and the 4wd track continue till it reaches Running Waters. The track is really enjoyable, nice turns, cruising along over rocks and sand. Sometimes blocked by a stubborn goanna, who don`t want to leave. So jumping out the car, trying to get a picture close from him, and then to scar him away. Wrong, one of the defence tactics of those big animals is, running to the highest point. So you can imagine where he`s gonna run to in the bush where almost nothing is higher than a metre, if you are in a bad spot. Right, to your head, and i guarantee you, that`s not a pleasant thought if you see the nails of that crazy animal.

We also, mmh, i`m lying, Luke managed to catch some yabby`s, to be honest, just one. We thought to have a good meal by catching some, cook and eat them. But with our catch, we putted the poor bastard again in his own waterpool with the mission to multiply for the next trip. And like you see , the bundy was always present on camp trips.
