- Australia day!

Today the Australians celebrated the discovery of Australia (in 1788).

A day that naturally has a very positive and yet relaxed ambiance - which
is typical for "the Australian way", I find :-)


One of the main attractions is the huge fireworks in Perth; the city which
is my goal for the Australian part of the world run.

If things go well I hope to run into Perth the 10. February - 557km down
the road..


Tomorrow I head out on the stretch to Southern Cross. Approx. 187km with
two "water opportunities" at each end.
- I load the baby jogger with 22 litter of water and hope for good flat
roads to push the 50kg in total along :-)


PS: The carrier phone signal for the gps. pictures probably will
disappear somewhere out of Coolgandie. Until then there should be a nice
"Golddigger Town" picture report for you...
