My Trip to Mt Thomas

In the Christmas holidays the Andrews and my family went to Mt Thomas. Mt Thomas is close to Ashley Gorge, so we spent most of our time there because it was so hot!

When Lucy and I hoped in the water we froze, the water was freezing. We started to swim over to the other side of the river. When we got to the other side, I felt something slimy go across my foot.

The next day Jackson [my step brother] was looking under the water and he found an eel’s nest. I got a bit frightened, so I got out of the water .When we got back to the camp site we packed up and got ready for the long trip home

I had an awesome time at Mt Thomas. I hope we can go back.
