 Alex dreamt of leading a docile flock who would follow obediently in his footsteps, but he was beaten from the start. There are more individualists to the hectare in the Sydney Bush Walkers than in any other gathering of people. With 40 miles of beaches to spread along his exuberant flock were not to be roped in. At least their individual footprints showed when  they were ahead, and all seemed to get together for meals.  Alex dreamt of leading a docile flock who would follow obediently in his footsteps, but he was beaten from the start.

 We couldn't go round the rocks so crossed over Meroo Paint and so to our last, beach. The Termeil outlet was an easy crossing in comparison our previous one, and so up to Tabourie. Some had a swim in the warm water of Tabourie Creek. Then a sunbake for half an hour before heading up the road to the store on Princes Highway. Soon along came the bus, and so to Nowra and train home. "Great trip, Alex! Mighty trip! See you again when you lead the next one!" We couldn't go round the rocks so crossed over Meroo Paint and so to our last, beach.

 "The Wollondilly at Jooriland gauging station is 0.72 of a metre - you won't have any trouble getting across." Thus spake the man from the Water Board when I rang on Thursday morning before leaving on the trip. We had planned to cross the Wollondilly near Burnt Flat Creek and proceed via Mt. Oolong, the Axehead Range, Cloudmaker, Splendour Rock and Narrow Neck to Katoomba. "The Wollondilly at Jooriland gauging station is 0.72 of a metre - you won't have any trouble getting across."

  Jan Mohandas, leader of the walk of 26th February - Waterfall to Otford - reports that at the Figure 8 Pool a freak wave swept members of the party across the rocks as well as a person in the pool, so that all received severe bruising and cuts. The message is - Beware of a big swell and high tides (and of course, rough weather).  Jan Mohandas, leader of the walk of 26th February - Waterfall to Otford - reports that at the Figure 8 Pool a freak wave swept members of the party across the rocks as well as a person in the pool, so that all received severe bruising and cuts.
