Becki's online BoardFree Diary

The alternative story to BoardFree, Becki style

Tuesday, October 03, 2006

Its been so long!

So much has happened since I last blogged, so your best bet is to take a look at all the fab vids and pics on www.boardfree.co.uk

However - here is a list of my highlights just for all you keen viewers!

  • Going up in a plane to see the nullabor desert and some whales!
  • Whale watching form the cliffs at the Head of the bight
  • Playing in some massive sand dunes!
  • Swimming in the sea where it was really rough and there could have been sharks
  • Seeing Dave hit 2000km - we're one third of the way to Brisbane
  • Seeing Bev record the Boardfree song (check out the latest video)
  • Getting to the end of the nullabor and arriving at Ceduna
  • Having 2 rest days at ceduna oysterfest - eating oysters and raising heaps of money!
  • Having problems with the vans and then finding really nice guys to help us fix problems
  • Meeting tonnes of lovely nice people on the road
  • Seeing dave complete 102km in one day
  • The wildlife - emus, roos, snakes, spiders, whales, lizards, skinks, a dead wombat, dolphins, seals, eagles, parrots, budgies, galahs and cockatoos
  • Seeing the girls enter tug of war - (read hollys blog for a great discription)
  • Seeing Kate do an amzing job with the media and have people saying they read about us/ saw us on tv/ heard us on radio
  • Laura Hatwell (our very own scottish skater girl) completed her 25 mile journey and raise 450 quid
  • Raising heaps of money
  • Staying with loads of great people and getting some awesome free accommodation.

Sorry its so brief - but my blog cant do this place justice. Im having the time of my life - its hard work, but worth every second. Missing home loads - but the team and I are having fun and promoting BoardFree big style - Australia loves it.

Much love

Becs

    Hello girlie,

    Been thinking of you - sounds like you're all doing really well. Phil's been working his way through all the videos, though I don't have a sound card in work so can't quite get the same effect. All looks good, though!!!

    Shame about Dave's foot, but sounds like he's not letting it stop him!

    Give our love to everyone... and don't forget to let us know if there's anything you need.
