This easter, with myself & Maria squeezed between work, uni & full easter flights, we only managed to scurry up to the Blue Mountains for a short getaway. We were greeted by freezing temps & gloating from the Gold Coast - apparently it was quite nice at the pin on the weekend!
After losing 2 hours of our lives in a jam between Springwood and Wentworth Falls, we made it to the Megalong Valley, SSW of Blackheath, off the plateau, and we camped just below the Hydro Majestic. Due to the delay we ended up setting camp in fading light (and temp!).
So we unpacked quickly, got a fire going and cooked dinner over the fire... good times!
I make fire. I am man.
Nick wore flano's to help us blend in with the 'wildlife'...
The next morning we headed further south and passed through the 'green gully' to the end of the road and the National Parks trail head in the Kanangra-Boyd... It was an amazing spot where we picked up a few leeches and had a nice lunch - definitely planning to get back there for some hiking!
We also scoped another spot for a camp-out, by a nice river and a bit more 'in the bush'...

| yep, caught Nick smiling on camera! |
Back to camp for sunset beers and some sensational swedish meatballs!
Whilst we collected firewood, the girls set up camp nicely for dinner and Nick proved his manhood by starting a fire with wet wood whilst I drained his lovely home-brew! Good times!
Oh yeah, Happy Easter!
