Chinamans Island
It was such a lovely spring day blue sky's too nice to stay indoors.
My two Grandaughters "Rylie and Maddison" had come to visit me on returning home from a holiday in Fiji.And ask can we go for a walk,
My mate Gwen had come around for our daily cuppa .that was put on hold till we got back.
So all into the car drove to Yacht club parked the car there. Then off we went for our walk along a nice smooth bush track .meandering through the light bush near the waters edge,passing many people on the way.
After about 2hrs back home for our much needed cuppa. Gwen coffee myself Tea and the girls a soft drink. And the Girls had a very early night.If you would like to read more about the Girls trip to Fiji.. http://skippysden.blogspot.com/

One of the many signs on the walk
if you look hard enough there a honey eater in the tree
A Pea hen hurrying to get to his /her mate in the bush. I did take a photo of a few in the bush but was hard to
make them out on the photo
this is a view nearing the end of our walk you can see the pathway meandering behind the trees.

Hi Jeanette thanks for the pics, its nice to see someone elses walk. I must say Gwen is a lot like Tommy way out in front like that, I even thought she had a stick but on enlarging the pic I could see it was her arm. I'm glad you enjoyed your walk anyway, I bet you needed a cuppa after that.
It looks really pretty there. Especially liked the pea hen photo. Here in Boston it's kinda cold. The usual autumn weather.
My first time to your blog, that song is great I had to played it a couple of times. It made me smile and sing along.
Hi,
Your 'gum tree' looks like our eucalyptus trees we have here, but they were probably originally from your country.
Nice walk, I would have loved to have joined you on it if I wasn't an Ocean away.

lovely pictures! Very nice!
Hi Jan ~ Great walk and photos and good post.I love the gum tree (eucalyptus) as
I am very fond of them. You did a fair bit of walking ~ congrats !! The little
grandies are a cute pair. Thanks for your comments, glad you liked the jokes etc. Take care, Love, Merle.
Hi Mate great snaps of our walk,I didn't realize we walked that far.
It's made me tired all over again,
Hee!Hee! great day always enjoy our time together.xoxo
Sounds like a wonderful day...Your lovely friend Gwen and two sweet grandaughters in the great outdoors! Thanks for sharing :)
What beautiful scenery you got to see on your walk...I would have so enjoyed that!! I always find it so fascinating how different your trees and birds, etc are from here in Canada. Have a wonderful weekend Jeanette!!! xoxo
Oh how beautiful! The walk was lovely and your two Granddaughters are so darling! It is fun to see all the birds too, we don't have that kind here in Florida, USA! Have a great weekend! :)
Hi Jan,
Well, I certainly enjoyed that walk with you and your friend and the adorable little girls!
Thanks,
Junie
Thankyou for taking me on your walk with you!
That first images is stunning. With all the light and shade flickering across the tree , it looks like a painting.
YOur grandchildren are fortunate in having you as their Nanna :)
Right Jen - how perfect is this weather...?
Your grandaughters are beautiful.

Della
Looks like a lovely day for a walk. Your granddaughters are so cute!

:)

Those are beautiful tress and really all the scenery is pretty. [Do they allow trail bikes on those paths? Motorcycles?]
You probably figured out, I've been pretty scarce of late with Mema and all.

I hope Merle keeps on blogging. It is frustrating sometimes, my daughter, Susie, quit. She is a perfectionist and that doesn't rhyme with blogging.
I left a comment tonight, please tell her I really like what she writes. She could slow down as I'm about to and still have enjoyment.
..
Thanks for the nice walk I enjoyed
Hi Jan, thanks for taking us on your lovely walk, I did a lot of walking on my holiday, I love walking however it is always nicer with company. I hope Merle does not give up on blogging, her posts are always great. Cheers Margaret
What a wonderful walk. I love the Lake Mulwala area (that is where you were, I hope !!). Seeing your photos makes me yearn to go camping on the Murray again ... it is just gorgeous where you are, I am terribly jealous !! Thanks for sharing.
Have a great week.
Take care, Meow
I have never heard of any of your birds before- like the one with the hen running across the road- a bit like our pheasant over here-lol.
Girls look lovely with their braids.
Bests and keep cool. xx
You live in a magnificent place. I thought places like this existed only in my corner of the world...
