Douglas Hot Springs

Amazingly, there is a sign up as we walk into the Springs, saying:

CAUTION: Water extremely hot temperatures & QuickSand !
Deaths and Extreme Injuries Have Occured!

So, we walked further up to the other entrance.


Where we first entered the water, the temperature felt quite cold. But a few
metres away is another stream coming straight down from one of the Natural Springs, and is so hot, that Noah couldn't handle walking through it. But the rest of us oldies enjoyed the hot spa-like water temperature. Once we were warm enough, we would have a quick dip into the Cold Stream again, then back to the warm water.

Mum, Dad & some other oldies hogged the place where the 2 streams came together - Not to Hot, Not to Cold, Just Right for the Old Aching Bodies!

This is another of God's Beautiful Oasis Creations in the midst of the surrounding Desert Like Landscapes.

Does your mum know you're calling her one of the oldies??????
Sounds divine - can't believe you're swimming up there - it's freezing here!
