Hi since we last wrote we traveled to Coffs harbor..and took lots of evening beach pics..of the surfing beaches after Sydney which was wet but great fun..Check out the fruit bats in the park!then we traveled to the blue mountains which were beautiful..great canyons and waterfalls..just lovely.As you can see we spotted lots of kangaroos..and Flora and Seth fed one!We have driven miles of flat scrub land..you can easy drive a good few hours without seeing any sign of life..(apart from the wildlife).We have had a wonderful time 2 hours north of Melbourne with friends we have been made very welcome..and its been really relaxing.Went along to a church last Sunday and were invited to dinner..then went out on the Murray river in his little speedboat and fished(got 1 much to our kids delight).They invited us to Kangaroo lake yesterday and we had such a laugh in the boat..swimming..being pulled on a huge donut thing behind the boat..called a biscuit!!and then had a go at knee boarding..the Australians and their weird and wonderful sports are quite mad!!we had a fab time.Also the kids went kayaking…a great evening ended with a most amazing sunset..hope you like the pics..catch you soon..love Rachel.x
Amazing pics Rachel. There’s a wee rumour that you guys are back end of feb – is this true?! We’re missing you all loads and look forward to seeing you when you get back. Life will be so dull for you lot with no daily adventures……..
Much love, George x
Loved meeting you guys last week! Rachel, I love the CD’s – thanks so much. I feel so blessed from meeting you guys and inspired to paint when I listen to your music!! You have a real gift! Hamish- you definately remind me of someone!!(someone a bit crazy!). Anyway, hope the rest of the trip goes well for you and I’m dying to hear more about your adventures. Lots of love – Toni from Swan Hill (the land of the red sunset!)
Hi Hamish, Rachel – Seth, Darcy and Flora
We miss you and hope that you are enjoying your travels up through the centre of Oz.
I have booked my ticket to come to the UK today, departing on the 14/07/2008 – flying out of the UK on the 31/09/2008 (will be flying in to London and out of Manchester). So will more than likely catch up with mum and dad at the start of my trip.
Bye bye from us – from Swan Hill
For now at least xxx – safe travels………..
