Muogamarra Nature Reserve 2015

Another year and another trip to Muogamarra. Although we always go there it is lovely to go to a park where there is no rubbish, as it is only open for six weekends a year and charges a fee which keeps the ferals at bay.

This year the whole family was old enough to enjoy it, which was nice. It did mean we were limited to doing a half an hour walk over 4 hours though. Still the plants are very impressive here so you don't need to go any faster.

Gibberagong

We ended up doing the mangrove boardwalk and the first part of the Gibberagong walking track in Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park twice in about a month with the kids. Which considering how little we have been getting out is surprising. Anyway it is a nice walk for the little ones although they still preferred the giant playground near the start of the walk.

Some inherited birdwatching talent there, I don't think he has his eyes open.

Alex turns two.

This was way back in May, but I never got around to posting anything.
Seemed to enjoy himself as they usually do at that age.

Pinata, surprisingly hard for little kids to break. They could have been at it for days without a little assistance.
