Jade's Tarras Photos

Well Jade and Mum are back safely from Tarras and sounds as though they had a fantastic time, with the weather being typical Tarras and very hot.

Jade in the river having fun, apparently she speant the whole afternoon just swimming around, reminds me of when we were kids, we used to some times spend the whole day in there.

This one is of Jade talking on her cellphone to me, they have to walk to the top of a hill to ensure they have coverage to make the call! They did it everyday, and belive me it is not a small hill to walk to the top of to make this call!

This one is on the bridge that crosses the river, the big pipe beside takes all the water up to the water race which goes all over the valley to help with the irrigation on the farms. The same bridge was there when we were kids as well, except they had to replace some of the planks last year. It does seem alot more wobbly than when I was a kid, but perhaps I am just a little more careful!!

This next one Jade was stalking the sheep that were coming down to the river to get a drink, but she did not want to get sheep poo on her hands, so she had her sandals on her hands to stop that happening!!

This one above is a picture of the campsite, Mum must have walked over the river to take this picture, Jade is sitting in the front. The river was so low this year, it must have been very dry. They left a day early as the water had actually stopped moving outside the camp site.
