Walls and falls

 Bushwalker Sue on the left, resting briefly during the initial steep ascent on the Walls of Jerusalem track. Note the two good legs, so to speak.

It was a different story next morning at Burnie hospital, diagnosed with only one good leg, and a spiral fracture of the fibula in the other. Sue had fallen victim to Falling Over On The Way Down Syndrome, and her bushwalking activities for the rest of the week were somewhat curtailed.

The upside, if there was one, was that we all got to see at first hand the special procedures that Virgin Airlines puts into action for transporting people in wheelchairs through airports and into planes via forklift trucks.

Wishing you a speedy recovery, Sue, and then a quick return to your previous fitness level, and lots of good rambling in England and bushwalking here.
