We enjoyed looking through the Boolboonda Tunnel, a 192m tunnel carved by hand way back in 1883. it used to be part of a railway link but is now home to hundreds of bats. At first we weren’t sure that George would make it through the tunnel as the entrance was a big mud puddle but a kindly local reassured us that the puddle was only 8inches deep and the ground was solid rock – extra reassuring for me that George could make it as it was seriously looking like Tony was determined to walk through and I can tell you I could see those bats flying around and I definitely wasn’t keen – George and I have a special affiliation now!! A
If you look carefully you can see the bat |
fter we spent some time ooing and aaing over the bats and tunnel we headed to Mt Perry – breakfast was first up at an awesome picnic spot, great tables, great bbq, a bonus of a laundromat which didn’t cost a fortune AND hot showers – OMG our first laundry and hot shower in 12 days – I have to tell you I was in heaven J
