Beeeautiful. Captain Kerry, a friend of Carol Curtis, the lovely lady from Heaven in the Hills, Maleny, took it upon himself to offer his commanding skippering services to us upon on his yacht, The Paladin. We saluted in honour and went there giddy as spring lambs. G’day too to Deb and little Billie Jean who sailed to Fitzroy Island with us. Deb gave us work for the next day, weeding, and donated money to Book Aid. On’yers.
Thank you to Kerry’s missus, Anna and his lovely daughter, Sarah.
Thanks to the Cairns Post people for running a story on us and making us look good
About Me
- Gareth, Anne and Phil
- Going for broke, starting from scratch with nothing at all, not even clothing, we intend to raise the necessary resources, bit by bit, without any cash ever changing hands, to set off on the 25,000km journey from Brisbane, anti-clockwise around Australia, to arrive back at Brisbane. We will discard all our possessions, relying wholly on the kindness of others to provide us with everything we need to navigate around the continent. We work the whole way around, doing as many jobs offered to us as possible and give up every single cent of our wages to Book Aid International. At the end of our adventure we will keep nothing but our footage, pictures and stories. All we've been given, that we have not used, will be auctioned off, with proceeds going towards the promotion of Child Literacy. We will keep nothing for ourselves save the proof that Australians are fair dinkum the worlds friendliest people.
