May 21 Emily goes to Emily Gap

We went in a few different directions today; Ruby went to Trephina Gorge in the East MacDonnell ranges with Dad (because she can't get there in her little Mazda due to the river crossings) and Emily went shopping with Mum (because she gashed her leg the night before at the night club and didn't think she could go hiking around a gorge).

I had been to Trephina last week with Jude, so it was familiar territory, but still just as enjoyable.

Always the thrill-seeker, Ruby thought she would try tea-potting after her success with planking
 We went a short distance down a 4WD track and disturbed a huge lizard that was sun-baking on the track.


On the way back to Alice, we had a quick stop off at Emily Gap.
Ruby struggling with her teapot impersonation. Maybe you should stick to planking?
When we returned to Alice, we swapped children and I got to take Emily to Emily Gap. We just had to!

Emily Gap is only about 10km out from Alice, so a short drive and not much walking when you get there.

Guess who this is?

  2. What's with all this teapotting and planking? How about walking around with your eyes closed and bumping into lamp posts? That would at least be funny (for the others to watch) :D

  3. Spout needs more shape, bend the elbow. Now that she's 18 I thought she might have had some practise.
