had to happen

i suppose

with our bad weather this week ,a tourist has fallen hundreds of feet into a ravine while walking in the mountains -really not advisable following all the rain.
this particular walk is very steep/very narrow /very rocky /no handrails.
we have done it in summer but even then it was dodgy covered in wet rotten leaves

in a 2nd event a local fell into the harbour and although 3 teenagers dived in to help ,it was'nt to be . pulled out dead i'm afraid,the water is VERY choppy with this high wind

very sad Vic :(

My heart goes out to the family of that tourist and the people who drowned, esp the families of the three teens that jumped in to help; :cry:
