Kim's post - at last

Day 6
Saturday 7th February 2009

We're staying at a reserve on the Fitzroy River which is about 35 kms before Portland. It's a lovely, quiet spot but we had a terrible night with wind, lightning and thunder. This morning was stinking hot but a cool change has finally come through. Because the weather was supposed to be so bad - mainly the heat and wind, we decided to stay put today which would also give my back a break. We've just come back from a walk and saw a roo at the river having a drink. While we were watching, he decided to go in for a swim, and swam right across to the other side of the river.


Janine - if you're reading this, get your Ps, go for a couple of rides every week, grab Leigh, and hit the Great Ocean Road as soon as you can! You and Leigh will love it. The ride from Anglesea to Warrnambool is like nothing else you'll ever get to do and is absolute magic!

We're hoping tomorrow to make it to Nelson. I love Nelson and am really looking forward to it - especially the pub lunch (or tea).

Hopefully, now that I've done my first blog, it won't be so hard to get into it again.
