Survival weekend (Test run)

Wow this weekend was fun. For those who don't know we've been watching a lot of Man vs wild. It's an addiction. We've been saying for the past week or so that we could easily survive the wilderness.
On Saturday afternoon we went for a hike through the Boondall wetlands. We went through so many environments in those couple hours.
We left home at 4pm so we avoided the harsh sun. It was crazy within half hour we had left suburbia and had our first obstacle facing us. We had taken a wrong turn and found ourselves facing train lines behind a fence. We couldn't cross there. So I came up with the solution. Instead of walking a kilometer out of our way to cross at the railway station we went under the overpass and climbed up the side. We then had a little fence to jump and we were back on a proper footpath heading in the right direction.
