One down, two to go!






The confession first: there was no victory lap of the lake - too tired after the Mamakus. The hills went on and on and on. Every time we thought we'd got to the top it turned out to be a teaser. When it did come, the down hill trip was over very quickly.

Victory lap or not, we successfully completed the first leg - yippee! What a shame we sent Sean, film maker extraordinare, to buy the celebration beers - he was asked for ID and had none, and so the cupboard is bare. Never mind, we still have a hot soak to look forward to.

John refused to leap into the waters of the lake in his birthday suit despite enormous peer pressure, but there is still tomorrow to break him down.

In the words of the immortal Spock: Live long and prosper. Good night.

So much for trying to be smart with technology - I set my browser up to tell me automatically when there were new posts and have been looking everyday and seeing none - even rang Karen to see whether you guys had been trucked over or something (her internet had been down so she was none the wiser). Finally checked the setting today and realised I'd linked to the wrong URL - duh! So great to see your progress and read the stories - you do it well mate, perhaps there's a book in this? Take care, thinking of you :-)
