The Grampians - by Andrew

The Grampians  by Andrew.

We came to The Grampian National Park today. We came from Stawell all the way to Halls Gap and then to the Wonderland carpark. We had the caravan hitched and so we had to find a long park for it. Dad had to do a tricky reverse into the long vehicle car space. Then we went on a 2 hour bushwalk to The Pinnacles.  It seemed a very long way and we had to climb thousands of rocks on the way up. We walked through a place called the Grand Canyon. We had to go through a valley and then up some very steep stairs.  When we came down, we had to walk backwards down the stairs. It was really windy at the top. We saw a lady who had slipped on the rocks and hurt her forehead on the way up. Some people were helping her get bandaged up. We saw blood on the rock and on the ground.

Dad took lots of photos of the Pinnacles. I liked it up there; it was a really good view.

On the way down we stopped and had lunch. After we finished our bushwalk, we went to Halls Gap and had a treat.  Georgia and I had Ice blocks and Mum and Dad had coffee.

Then we drove to Wannon Creek camping ground in the National Park. The pit toilets are a bit smelly, but the camp site is good. We had to wait until the rain stopped so we could put the caravan and get everything done. Then we played cards and soccer and threw a football around.

After that we had dinner and played another game of cards.  Then Mum said time for bed but it’s still light. So I asked if I could do some blogging.  Mum said “yes”.

Thanks for reading.
