Paddys River Falls Camping with Jo (Easter 2016)

Easter 2016, we decided to have a reunion with Jo. We agreed to meet half way between NSW and VIC and chose Paddys River Falls as the meeting point where we pitched up camp for the first night. The falls are on the south western side of the Snowy Mountains and were very easily accessible.


We pitched up camp right next to the viewing point overlooking the falls and valley and close to the nearby trail that takes you down to the foot of the falls.


You cant fault the view from up above.


After lunch we decided to head down to the foot of the falls. It is quite an easy trek down for both us and the dogs although I was a bit slower than the others due to being in the moon boot still



The rest of the day was spent back up at camp and "catching up." Perhaps the highlight of the afternoon was a random snake that decided to pass between Jo and I and through our campsite and on into the scrub. We think it might have been an eastern brown snake which is the worlds second most venomous land snake. It could also have been a type of python - we weren't too sure.  We just kept our distance and let it pass on through 


As the sun went down, we made our camp fire and had a BBQ.


We were looking forwards to the weekend as it forecasted pure sun :)
