Chillagoe

We are back in Internet land after being well outside the zone.  If you remember that Verizon guy talking in the phone all the time;

"Can you hear me now?"

Well in Chillagoe I can assure you the answer is a resounding No! There are some fantastic things to see and do and Levi has been a trooper.  Each day we have done walks totalling about 6kms in two or three walks or tours.  There are some great limestone caves and fabulous formations.  We were able to explore a couple of caves by ourselves and had to go on guided tours for three of them. 

This is Balancing Rock.  Of Course!  We walked up and around it and Levi climbed through it and all over the rocks on the walk.  The best reward was at the end though when we played in the swimming hole.  Actually, I am a complete baby when it comes to cold water, so I stayed out and took photos.  Mim and Mike both got in and tested the depths before all the jumping! 

One of the caves was not lighted.  You carried around these big batteries and torches and there were some really tight squeezes.  In one you have to climb through a tiny little hole and drop out the bottom, legs first.  Levi was very proud of himself for doing this and talked and talked about doing it afterwards!
