Chinese Happy Meal!

We awoke to an amazing day at Walnut Grove and spent a leisurely brekky enjoying the place.



Then we fired up and, joined by our new mate Mario from Perth, headed off on a hike way way down the steep cliffs to the very bottom of the gorge at it's narrowest point. Middle Tiger Leaping Stone. So much for this amazing mythical tiger, couldn't make it across in one go hey? Needed a stepping stone? Bah!


It was quite a rush though to be right down there next to this powerful mass of water roaring through the narrow chasm. We all took off separately and just stared hypnotised at the water for ages.



Back at the ranch we were a little peckish for lunch so decided to grab the intriguingly named "Happy pizza" from the menu. One pizza each, for 4 bucks, they were damn tasty and we were pretty happy. After about an hour or so we were extremely happy. So happy in fact that I found it completely impossible to lift my head from my chair.


When Sarah started giggling uncontrollably for about twenty minutes straight she thought it was best not to make a spectacle of herself and took off to our room. It took every ounce of strength in my body to get out of my precious chair and follow her. Safe in our bedroom we proceeded to laugh hysterically and constantly in fits and gales for the next few hours until our stomach muscles were rock hard from the workout. Somehow we managed to make it downstairs for dinner but, unable to speak or commune with others, we bolted it down and swiftly returned to our room for another session of laughter therapy. Happiest damn pizza I've ever eaten in my entire life.
