Highs and Lows
Not only have i been rubbish at updating my blogs but now that i get a chance to enlighten you all about the happenings of the last 11 days i can't remember a lot! Useless!
Ok, so it goes a little something like this -
The Lakes: RoadHouse - our first camping night. Good food, good laughs, good sleep.
Northam: We were greeted by loads of kids thinking Dave was Tony Hawk, quite comical at the time. We stayed at the avonbridgehotel kindly donated to us! Another good sleep.
Cunderdin: Dan's birthday. I've never seen one person love a straw that repeatedly played happy birthday as much as Dan did. We stayed at the Cunderdin Museum thanks to a chap called Chum!
Kellerberrin: A day of highs and a night of lows. I got the news that my grampa died on Saturday. Heartbroken. I cried, lots. And when i was sitting in the sand got bitten, lots too! We stayed at the Caravan Park there. The boardfree team were there for me. Each did something to make me more comforted/warmer/laugh etc. I'm so grateful for having them to make sure i'm ok.
Merredin: I got to spend the night with Dan, Dim and Si and we laughed lots again and discussed playground games and old tv programmes.
Bodallin: Road House - kate fell off her bike, Nurse Mckinlay came to the rescue.
Southern Cross: S. Cross Motel - lovely beds.
Coolgardie: campsite so far...rest day today.
You'll notice that i'm mainly talking about sleep and beds. There've been too many good times to list. Sometimes the going gets tough for us all, Dave especially but that's why we make such a good team. We pull together and get on with it!
The shewee is amazing. It means all the girls no longer need to squat!!
My mind is all a smush at the moment.
I"ve had lots of emails giving me support, telling me jokes and generally informing me about stuff.
Thankyou everyone.
Keep in touch!
Over and out.

Also i'd like to add my condolances to Steve Irwins Family. He was a legend and shall remain so in many peoples hearts.

God it's weird being home. Stalled the car twice today; bloody manuals!
There's too much traffic here.
I'm glad that things are going well, glad you are covering the distances.
i love you.
Hi Holly,
My name is Georgina and I am a friend of your grand parents - May and Ted - we may have even met once back in 1997 - my last trip to the UK. Spoke to May the other day and she tells me you're on this amazing trek around Australia.If you make it to Melbourne, give me a call.(I'll send you an email with contact details) Best of luck! Gx
HI Holly, It is so good to be able to see you in the videos & pictures. You are making such good progrsse & the scenery is superb. Watching Dave skating always reminds me of Paul Robeson singing Lonely Road! Before your time but it was one of my favourite songs, many years ago. Hope you were not responsible for the twisted wheel?
good luck to the gang, Love you lots. Nanna XX
