Our first peer to peer nature walk was amazing!!
The weather was great, although some blue sky over the water would have been nice, but not hot so that's awesome. The wildlife really showed up for us too which was so cool. The kangaroos seem to be really ok with having the community come into their space. I just love kangaroos so much 😍 The walk is not too challenging either so it is suitable for many of us. Although I wore sneakers I came home with two blisters only after an hours walking so good shoes is super important (i must of picked a dud pair when i bought these asics haha). I'll definitely be upgrading ready for our next walk lol The car park was pretty full when we arrived which did look a little daunting. Did some breathing exercises to start off to calm the anxiety, but once you've started your walk you don't come across many people at all because it is such a huge place. There were moments where I just stood in one spot to soak in the scenery and had no people around us which was great. Being one with nature really does feed my soul and lifts my energy.
I wanted this to be an opportunity to connect in real life both with each other and to nature. I am super grateful. I took loads of photos so if you are thinking of attending our next walk you have an idea of what you will be able to experience. A free event. In nature which is also free. In a cost of living crisis and the things happening in the world right now free things are so important to enable us to come together as a community.
I also took photos of things available here. There was a BBQ if you want to BYO cook up, coffee van, lions BBQ, sunscreen and water stations and RAA electric car locations. It really did have everything but by the time we got back they had run out of bacon on the lions bbq so no brunch today, maybe next time lol
I loved today and I can't wait to do it again and again and again. So stay tuned for the next event which I will be posting very soon.
Have a great long weekend!
