Purnululu North End

Our second day say us off again early - it gets to hot to walk too late in the day.  We went to the northern end of the park and did the Mini Palms walk which took us right up a gorge to see some Livistonia Palms.  It was a bit cooler and shadier than our walks yesterday. The boys enjoyed climbing over and squeezing past the boulders to get into the end of the gorge. 





After lunch in the airconditioning of the car we went to Echidna Chasm.  This walk saw us walk right to the end a chasm that most times was no wider than your outstretched arrms.  The sun only every reaches into the bottom of the chasm during the middle of the day, so narrow is the cleft and the colour changes are spectacular.
We spent the afternoon at camp with the boys doing some much needed journal writing and school work.  We have been pretty slack on this front but promise Mrs Jacobs and Miss Keong that we will be better in May.
