The Six Foot Track Once Again

I just got back from spending Easter weekend on a hike in the Blue Mountains. We started in Katoomba and hiked three days to the Jenolan Caves. This trip was something I did 13 years ago when in Australia on an exchange program. However the guidance of my great friend Derek led us off the trail and into the middle of the bush where we spent six days trecking up rivers to find our way back. Aside from the eight foot monitor lizards, red belly black snakes, and brown snakes we managed to find our way back to civilization.

This time around it was much more mellow. Three days on the track without getting lost and we made it to the caves. It was a nice escape from the day to day things around Elvina Bay and camping always gets me back to the pace of nature. Enjoy the video with a groovy Jack Johnson tune, Breakdown.




Sorry it's a short blog, but I'm off to focus on my multi-million dollar screenplay and international best-selling novel before I have to help organize our engagement party for this weekend.

Excellent video...looked like a great time. can't believe you guys made it across that bridge (gave us the shakes just watching).

Thanks for the thoughtful card and message. That was very nice of you guys to think of us.
