Morning All, Finally some warmer weather!! yay!! 26 sat, 36 sun (allegedly)
after trying out 5 different 4wd tracks on thursday and all of them being either gated or tree over track, it was decided to stick to the main roads. we stayed at falkland falls in a lovely little hut, with a pot belly stove. so warm and dry, nice to escape the rain. it had rained overnight everynight for the last 5..! On the same day we also went to the tree top walk and opted for the free ground level attraction... been to the otways, that bigger and better... we also went to the 'swarbrick' interpretive cultural forest part, basically: greenies putting art into nature and saying how great nature is and dont chop it down. nice walk though. good on them
in the morning on friday we met a couple travelling from belgium, and they were great, welcome, company. what started off as a "hello, how are you", turned into a lunch, dinner and late hour conversation. Man, this couple (Heikki and Sandy) had a wealth of information to give us, which is very valuable to us because they are going the opposite direction.
Saturday morning we drove from our rest area, 190km SE of Bunbury, to meet up with Emily's parents who are "on business" in the area. If anyone from the company is reading this, they are not having fun and are doing lots of work.... we stayed with them in bunbury and this morning (Sunday) we are going to go to church together. given the weather, the company and the town, it feels a lot like home.
Tomorrow Emily and i will travel south again to augusta area and work our way back up a bit slower. We have a lot of snorkelling to do.
Enjoy your day, whoever is reading this. Over and out

hey there guys
Just thought i would drop you guys a line.. sounds like yuo are having fun... the presentation night was a great night but we really did miss yuo both being there. It felt like all the various involved entities 'got it' the sponsors who were there could see where their money went, the riders could see who was going to Ugannda and the people going to Uganada could see how the money was raised and the church seemed to see that it wasnt just them invloved, there was quite a few outsiders etc. It was interesting that about four different people came up and said that they didnt believe it was this big a thing! Anyway i trust yuo are both keeping well and i will keep checking to see where yuo are at... Have fun and keep safe.
