Karijini National Park

 “On the road again”

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh, Karijini National Park. Life can’t get much better, except also going around Oz for 5 ½ months. BUT now it’s only 4 ½ months (you might be questioning only 4 ½ months).

We walked heaps of gorges but my favourite was Weano Gorge where we had to wade through waist deep rivers and walk down a fast running, steep waterfall (but luckily we had a handrail to cling onto).  My 5 year old sister, Ruby, did it so you can tell it wasn’t so bad. Everything was stunning. I can’t believe we saw a 1.5 m Pilbara Olive Python. Mum was scared and wanted to go back. They are constrictors.

This is me at Fern Pool, a pool about 800m from our campground.

Fern Pool was the best pool that I went to. Everybody loved it. On the walk there it was amazing. There was a tree full of bats and they were extremely loud snorers. The pool had about 200 fish feeding on the algae on the ladder.

Circular Pool was a pool that was circular. The walls were like they had been professionally carved by 1000 carvers. I was surprised that it was just nature. On the walk there we had to go through a lovely rainforest like an oasis. It was just magic. It was a highlight of Karijini.

Joffre Falls was absolutely spectacular. It was 150ft high and about 35ft wide. It was a beautiful outlook from the lookout.  The river was crystal clear. We wanted to go for a dip. Joffre falls fell in an oddly fashion. Here’s a pic to give you an idea.
