Report:
Bridgewater Bay to the Lighthouse was advertised as the walk for this day. However, up until the Wednesday night there were only Helen and myself going. I decided that we would change location and go to Dunkeld and walk the Piccaninny with our full packs on. I then received a call from Anne and Doug to say they were interested in joining the walk so I convinced them to join us. Then on Friday Vivienne decided to join us as well.
We left Koroit quite early as it was to be a really hot day. After the obligatory coffee we head for the short walk up the Piccaninny. There were magnificent views over the district as the sky was clear. As a group we decided to walk down the other side and join the track which goes to Mount Sturgeon. When we met this track we then headed out to the Mount Sturgeon car park. By this time it was about 11:30 and starting to heat up. There was a bike ride on that weekend so I asked one of the support vehicles if they would take our 2 drivers back to the Piccaninny car park. We then headed into Dunkeld for a most enjoyable lunch.
Although this walk was a lot shorter than anticipated we had a great time together. We laughed and giggled about every silly little thing we could and of course we had some wonderful food. It highlighted to me that the Warrnambool Walkers is all about the people first and the walking is just what brings us together.
Thanks for a lovely day Anne, Doug, Helen and Vivienne.
Linda
