We were just sitting here by the pool, enjoying the cool waters, when suddenly, out jumped a...
No, wait, that's a lizard. He jumped out, yes, but we were OK with that.
Out jumped a SNAKIE. He was about 1.2 - 1.3 m long and he wanted blood.
Either that or he wanted to get the hell out of there. His choice of escape route was poor, however, as it went directly towards us. Nadine screamed and levitated onto a park bench. I, with great manliness ran down to the pool. The snake disappeared, no doubt waiting around the next corner, poised to strike.
And so it ended with us climbing the bank up the other side (right through thick bush and probably more hungry snakes - however, none attacked and we escaped to blog another day).
Nadine, strangely enough didn't want to come bushwalking in the afternoon.
