Eagle`s Family Day Out

[Dwayne OMember]

Today was a family day out to visit the parents that are down from Yamba at the moment. We found ourselves flat out like lizards drinkin` at Mungo Brush on the Myall Lakes

Here is a bit of a pictorial of the days events,,,,,

A view of the lakeside picnic area

The kids had a frolic in the cool water

While the adults did some kind of Bench Racing :laugh:

Chicken`s Mate was there for a visit :laugh: :laugh:
Meet SCRUB TURKEY

And he brought his mate Plucker :laugh:

Then they were both chased off by Lenny the Lizard :blink:

So then we had some lunch which included some FRESH Myall River Prawns that were freshly caught during the night

Notice that Ash topped hers off with some Salt & Vinegar Chips

That was followed by a short stroll along a nice cool shady walking track that had a couple of nice loops of fresh virgin single in it :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Sort of wished I HAD ONE OF THOSE ELECTRIC TRIALS BIKES IN HERE

There were some steep little pinches, but as usual the camera on the phone doesn`t show them real well,,,

Me & the old man retired to the back of the cruiser for a cold beer

While the women & kids did some more Bench Racing it the shade of the annexe

That`s about it really, except for the drive back south to Newy, which included a stopoff at Maccas for a Vanilla Thickshake & some Sundaes

All in all a nice relaxing day out with the family, some brownie points scored (I think) :laugh: :huh:

went camping up there a fair bit as a kid catching prawns,swimming, gettin towed behind ski boat etc.

the goanas are pretty friendly up there. when i was 18 we did a trip up there, cooked a full leg of lamb in the ashes almost kiwi hungi style. we finsished the meat off the leg then a 2 metre goanna took of with the full bone. it climbed up a tree like in your pic with the bone and swallowed the whole bone which was a full lamb leg, fimur and calf swallowed most of it then choked and spewed it out on to my mates hilux from 6 or so metres up leaving a huge dint in his roof. :angry:

Funny Goanna story tf2!!

Eagle, that place looks nice, I had heard of Mungo Brush but had never been there. I always imagine riding the walking trails when I am in places like that. Those big broad fan leaf palms in the pics have the mother of all thorns on them though :blink: Wouldn’t want to get outa shape and plough into a grove of them suckers :S Thanks for sharing your pics.

:laugh: Maybe friendly to people ???? But the Old Man told me that the day before we went there, the goannas were wrestling at the water`s edge and actually dragging each other in to hold down in attempts to drown each other :blink: Even shoving their opponent in under the undercut bank on the edge to get a better dominant position :S

Nasty Stuff I reckon :laugh:
