Weather was forecasted to be pretty bad, but
screw it.... not much time's left!!
Still can't believe that we actually departed at 0300!
Main reason is to witness the wild animals around the
National Park. Buuuuuuut.....
we couldn't locate the actual starting point of the track
and wouldn't want to get lost right before school starts.
So, we had to stay in the car...
While my friends were catching some nap,
I was enjoying my star gazing.
Caught a few shooting starts ...
No wish was made, but still HAPPY.
* sadly no photo from my cheap canon compact*
It's supposed to be an 6-8 hour walk thingy.
But too little time to finish it,
plus my walkmates were pretty exhausted
after the 1st half (which lead to me walking for another 2 hours alone)
A short day walk with sweet weather, gentle wind,
and awesome friends.

| From the top viewing onto Springlawn Lagoon |
Most of the track pass through a swampy area *the entire track sits right next to the beach/cliff*
It took us nearly 2 hours to reach the top of the first hill.
from there you can have a magnificent view onto the Narrawntapu wetland, Springlawn Lagoon and the coast (refer to the 1st photo).
After conquering the top, we turned back a little bit and head to the beach.
We then walked for another 15 mins and decided that we have to bring lunch out earlier. FYI, we woke up at around 2am to prepare.
I was wondering what's in Ridz bag for quite some time till .....
After our early lunch, Ridz decided to take a nap. (as usual)
From there on, I walked on myself, for another 2 hours plus.
As I walk further and further eastwards,
and birds, wallabies, pademelons can be noticed easily.

| Auntie Corrinnes decided to just stay at the beach, do some yoga, take selfies and be a typical gadgets slave *sigh* |
Things I came across:
 |
| Nature's ornaments |
the landscape starts to change,
so as the floral.
and they looked so much similar to South Australian landscape.
 |
| Coastal line dotted with 'Black boy trees' scientific name: Xanthorrhoea australia |
 |
| Some unknown dried plants |
 |
| Nature, me and my shadow |
 |
| The trio |
Short but awesome day out.
=D
"Now get back to your work!"
