Had a great adventure today. Wazza took us rock hopping up Tilba Creek. After meeting a red belly black snake on the path and then getting a few leeches on us, we came across the creek , which is also the water supply for Tilba Tilba. We had a fantastic 4 hours up there, rock hopping our way up the creek, swimming across beautiful rock pools and climbing up waterfalls to continue our way upstream. We found a big water lizard sunning himself, an eel in one rock pool and caught fresh water crayfish in other pools. Aidan and Cody loved the fact that we could drink the water as we went.
The bush land around us was alike a rainforest, in places it looked liked scenes out of Avatar, we saw huge stag horns and ferns up in trees, one looked just like “King Jullian” out of the movie Madagascar 2. At the end we arrived at a massive waterfall, but the fun didn’t finish as now we had to rock hop and swim our way back down again. Aidan and Cody’s favourite part of this direction was sliding down the huge rocks into the rock pools – natural slippery slides. There were some fantastic photo opportunities but unfortunately because our camera is not waterproof we could not take it along!
