16th September
Manning Gorge was one our favourite so far. The colours were really pretty as the water changed from shallow to deep.
The boys loved it because of the jump rocks. Cam loves pushing the limits and did what was probably his highest rock jump yet. If you click on the top, right photo below you will see him launching himself from around 10m above the pool.
The Manning Gorge campsite had a beautiful swimming hole with a white sandy beach. A welcome retreat from heat and dust!!
There were some freshwater crocs floating around and sunning themselves on the rocks while we swam and surprisingly we were as unperturbed by them as they were of us.

The afternoon light made the most beautiful reflections across the water.
