Day 3

Monday, 24th - Day 3
After a short stop by the toy store for last-minute items, we headed into Grampians National Park in the morning. Our first hike was Pinnacle Point, near Halls Gap. It took us about 3.5 hours. Since Nathan quickly grew tired of walking, Alex carried him on his shoulders and I carried Jared in the backpack. It was a little bit chilly for the boys, but great weather for "bush walking."
We also took a short walk to Mackenzie Falls and some other look-outs. We drove a couple of hours into Warrnambool that night. We read the Christmas story from the scriptures and sang a few hymns.

We hit 3 birds along the way. This one broke the grate and got stuck in it. Poor bird...

The boys enjoyed sitting in the bush, eating apples.

Some pretty pink flowers along the trail.

I don't know what they're called- if anyone does, let me know...
