Cliff hanger
The photos finally turned up today, so here ya go!
The smaller kangaroo on the right is the girl, the bigger one at the back is a boy.
This one was taken from our front porch where we stayed.
Mackenzie Falls, Grampians National Park
As you do the climb from the bottom of the mountain to the Pinnacle, you go through a section called the Grand Canyon. According to T, the rocks are all layers and layers of sedement from fast moving water, maybe a tide, millions and millions of years ago. Yep, got a history and geography lesson along the way too! Being in the centre of the state, it's hard to imagine it was all sea years ago.
This was the part where I was saying rational stuff like, "Don't go so close to the edge! A gust of wind will come and you'll be swept to your death!" Yeah....think positive!
This is the Pinnacle. I refused to go out on that ledge. There's pretty much nothing under the part you can see - it's an outcrop. T was standing on nothing to take that shot. I was trying not to throw up.

Yay!!! So darling! ;)
Those cliffs made my knees go a little weak. I don't blame you for not going to the edge. Yikes!
Kangaroos. Wow. Yeah, I know you live in Australia, but still....
Wonderful pictures! And I would have been out on the ledge. Love the mountains.
You did get post happy...going to have to bring a lunch to catch up.
Wow the pictures are amazing, girlie! And you look quite happy if I might say. :)
As for your hairdresser, just elbow his danglies or something. But if it makes you feel better, I started going grey in my early 20's... I hear stress can do that to you. /sigh
Great pics! Thanks for sharing :)
Good God... heights are not my friend! Reminds me of when Colby and I used an exterior stairwell at one of our hotels, but the stairs and landings were all made out of metal slats so that you could see all the way to the ground. I was literally in tears and about to throw up the whole way down the stairs!!
The kangaroos are fabulous though, as is the waterfall... oh and that cutie you've got hanging around you in all the pics ;)
