North Trip

So as we venture into kakadu we had to do another bloody gorge!! (ABG )..true to form the NT puts on its walk this is an easy 2km walk to a plunge pool! Everyone seemed to be in thongs, it must be an easy one (I'm in thongs as i wasnt planning on walking), so off we set again to trek into ABG....after my huge walk yesterday I really really didn't want to go, but the WannaGunna Tribe (That's our new name)...persuaded me it would be easy!... so we get a little way and the bridge has collapsed so we have to wade through 4 inch deep water (we've just been past a sign that says danger crocs) that was not fun.. then we get to the fkg rocks AGAIN...I scrambled over a lot..(in my thongs) then I said enough is enough...fuck these gorges/rock pools/views...I don't need to see any more... once again the Wannagunna Tribe tried to push me on...(let's face it one in all in, can't leave a Tribe member to face the elements all by themselves)..but I resisted I just couldn't do another rock scramble. I also couldn't stay where I was , in the hot sun on a rock.. so I had no choice but to face the elements and try and get back without my Tribe. As I was trepidly trying to negotiate the last rock , down I went , like the proverbial bag of s..t... bounced on a few hit my elbow, my hip ..by this time I was well and truly crying my little eyes out (no-one else around) so I could have a dam good cry.. feeling stupid/helpless/failure ...having a real pity party...I had no choice but to pick myself up and continue the arduous journey ahead of me (hahahaha)...I had blood dripping down my arm , no water and no tissues (Glenn had the bag)... I can't wash in the water as there are crocs in there (bloody NT) it will be fun they said)... so I'm walking through this tiny track with thick bush /swamp either side on my own, blood dripping down my arm, tears 😢 dripping down my face.. and I hear a bloody rustle in the bush..to say I shit myself is an understatement.. , now I don't run,... but I started running.. that rustling kept going.. I'm like it's a fkg crocodile 🐊 😋 ..it can smell my blood...I have never been so scared in my life...just as I get to the underwater bridge where I'm sure the crocodile 🐊 is coming to get me..some other people came and started to walk across...I breathed a huge sigh of relief and kept going...I got back to car.. and waited for the Tribe... fuck you NT and fuck your Rocks and Crocs 😰😰😰😰😰もっと詳しく
