Camping down at Deep Creek with kids and kangaroos

Hive account@amandaclarke and I aren't avid campers, but we each have a brother with all the good gear; and they're always looking for an excuse to get out of the city for a while.

This time we ended up in Deep Creek Conservation Park, exactly here.

(Fantastic website. If you're not across the concept, take a look.)

It may look like I'm feeding the kangaroo here, but that's illegal, so I'm definitely not.

After the kids finally got the tent up,

my brother, Hive account@danclarke

salvaged his old rescue sling as a swing.

Crashing into Daddy was very popular.

I'm not usually a bushwalker, but the waterfall walk looked manageable, and only 3.5km round trip (2.2 miles) so Evelyn and I struck out on what turned out to be a 2.5 hr expedition.

Well worth it, and I fared better than I thought, which is always a pleasant surprise.

The next day, after a bit of geocaching

Evelyn, Hive account@henryclarke and I took a different track. There must have been a bushfire come through a few years ago, as there were old, dead, burnt trunks everywhere, and a heap of new growth all around the same height.

Its easy to just let the days and weeks roll by; but the kids are only young for a little while and nobody has fond memories of Autumn afternoons on the couch.

Thanks for joining us in Deep Creek, have a fantastic day :)
