On Thursday myself and Mary jumped on Uncle Brian's tour bus. It was the most bizarre day I have had in Australia so far. We were greeted by "Cousin Rohan" and "Gus" The Bus and these names we had to adhere to for the duration of the trip. Although a little bonkers, especially Cousin Rohans jokes and ability to communicate with Gus, it was a brilliant day filled with amazing people and beautiful scenery and not forgetting the best bread and butter pudding I think I have ever tasted (sorry mom).
We were driven to a number of waterfalls. Josephine Falls being my favourite. Unfortunately the weather wasn't in our favour the whole day. Each time we sat on the bus the sun would come out, but the moment we stepped out to see the falls the heavens would open. It didn't matter too much, we were going to get wet anyway, it just helped with the process of getting into the water… who am I kidding the water was freezing!!
A natural slide was formed in Josephine Falls and we spent a good hour sliding down it. My bikini took a hacking to and sadly it is now covered in a mossy substance but it was well worth it.. And as Tom (Nicholls) commented its pretty ancient so I guess its about time I bought a new one! Lol.
Our third visit was Mira Mira falls (aboriginal for lots of water) and this is where Peter Andre shot his video "Mysterious Girl". I have no idea how he managed to stand up in the waterfall let alone dance (or prance) around flexing his six pack as it was so powerful.
Our final stop of the day was to search for the Platypus. We were asked to switch our camera flashes off as they are sensitive little creatures and the flash could blind them. The Platypus surfaced a few times, I didn't realise how small it was (about 30cm in length). I haven't put these pictures on Facebook as it looks like a log floating in the water.. or as others commented something worse..
