Surprise visit by the Firefighting helicopter
Orienteering suddenly became even more interesting today with a visit from a Fire Fighting Helicopter. It pays to take your camera everywhere. Just before this weeks Orienteering started at the lakes in Dalyellup, the peace was shattered by this monster who needed a drink.
