23/8/2010 Lakeview Caravan Park, Broken Hill

Written by Kelly

We spent six and a half hours in the car (I went in Holly's car) It was long and boring. So we had an emu spotting competition. I didn't spot any. We had a break on the side of the road. We found some desert peas, they are really pretty I wish they would grow in Canberra.

We arrived in Broken Hill and got lost while trying to find a campsite, but in the end we stopped at Lakeview Caravan Park. Our site was next to the camp kitchen where there were tables and chairs to write on. I have put a padlock on my lollie jar thing so hungry siblings can't steal any.

After writing in my journal, Holly, Hayley and I made a game that is a mix between handball, soccer, netball, softball, baseball and hockey. I win everytime we play it. While having dinner in the camp kitchen we counted how many cats we saw, there were 12. Dad told us they were feral. I only believed him after I saw them trying to steal food from our cupboards very viciously. I guess that is another reason to have a lock on my lollies.

We just arrived at Broken Hill, again we looked for a park. We found a park. It's huge, it has two flip bars, one huge flying fox, and one bit you can jump off. Its also really high.

We've just gotten to Hay Caravan Park the Big 4, we are going to look for a playground.

later on...

we were just at the playground there was grass everywhere. We did heaps and heaps of cartwheels. I reckon I did the best cartwheels.

Catching up...

Finally we have a few days of internet connection and some time so I will update the blog with the happenings of the last few weeks. There will be a little bit of input from all of our bloggers, so just keep reading :)

Hello from Tennant Creek

Internet access has been sporadic, so most of our updates will probably appear later in out trip when we are at Airlie Beach. We are in Tennant Creek right now, enjoying the mild evening 19 degrees minimum. Everyone is still travelling well and enjoying our trip. We are all looking forward to spending a few days in Lawn Hill National Park in the next few days, and just staying in the one place for a few days.

We have covered a lot of kilometres so far, and taken a lot of photographs, so as time permits there will be more on here to show you what we have been up to.

Until then...
