sounds like you had no idea where you were going dude

firstly you were gonna drive past the entrance and carry on an extra 10 mins to another town and then work ya way back to the gate

then it seems you may have taken a wrong turn when you could have been in water

I'm sympathising, coz nobody believed me when I said I went the wrong way either :roll: :lol: :lol:
