Pretty Pink Tuesday returns...

Once upon a time there was a group on Flickr posting pinkified photos to a set theme every Tuesday.  It was a lot of fun but eventually the group ran out of steam & closed :( 

 

So, imagine our delight when a certain (slightly) mad Englishman decided to revive Pretty Pink Tuesday, giving us an excuse to once again upload (slightly) mad photos to Flickr.

& to try sneaking in the occasional flower ;)

a loooooong walk...

So, last Wednesday we went for a little 20km walk. From home (Laura) to the Wirrabara Forest.

(I didn't take any photos during the walk, these two are courtesy of Amy....more here)

We (that is - Amy, Kathryn, Adam & yours truly) set off at about 9am, arriving in Stone Hut (almost half way) in just over two hours. Mum & Dad met us there with lunch, extra water & juice.
Dad joined us for the remainder of the walk, while Mum headed home to collect the others & also the cupcakes, tea & coffee.
We were very, very glad to arrive at the picnic ground & sit down :)

 after our delicious afternoon tea, we hung around for a while & took some instants....these are mine

It was all Kathryn's idea....I'm glad I chose to go, but I won't be doing it again any time soon :)
