A sleep-walker on Mount Buggery
The sun rises and I wake up on top of a mountain... What's happened? How did I get there?
Some flashes come back in my mind: I was walking, step by step on heavy feet. I was following two friends... Where? Dream or Reality? I'll try to get the story from the photos.

Ross leads us on the trail.
I left Nelson, in New Zealand 30 hours before and, for strange bus and plane timetables combinations, I got here after 30 hours without sleep. I must say that don't remember very well the day... I was just following the two friends and enjoying the nature around me in a sort of awake-edge status. -
I tell Scott that I found a great open-source software to stitch pictures into panoramas; he decides to test it immediately with this 8 photos panorama.
By the way, this great software is Hugin: http://hugin.sourceforge.net/ -
here it the end of the first adventure. Now I was supposed to visit Melbourne, but you won't see any picture as I spent the next 3 days sick.
Then... I was ready for the next adventure!

Here I am, in Strayla, with Scott, the first Zorro from down-under. We met again after 9 years, in this trekking on Mount Buggery.

Ross will guide us in this trekking!
Could it be dangerous to stand on this rock at the very edge of the ridge?

Off course it is, but we were prepared because of the sign.
I love this kind of signs, a funny things to see along Australian tracks: you can find them in the most remote and unexpected places.

These mountains have rock walls on top, just over dense eucalyptus forests.

Quite a weird and nice hut, but the most beautiful room is...

...The toilet! With an amazing view on the valley.

When we arrive at the camp-site it is almost dark. I set up my hammock, eat what they give me and faint in the sleeping bag.

The next morning I resuscitated and my mind started to work again.
Here I watch the map to understand where we are. On the fire the water for breakfast is boiling, what a nice day!

I was soping up some cookies in the tea. Ross made this picture because found it weird.

Then I saw Scott putting muesli in the coffee... I thought it's weird and made this picture :-)

Today I really enjoy the trekking. Nature here is so different from New Zealand!
