It rained heavily last night and early this morning. In 2 days, we will not have a roof over our head when it gets wet. We will not have 2 fans cooling us down in a tiny studio apartment when it gets hot. However, we will have enough clothes to put on in layers when it gets cold. ; ) A rainy day like today makes us appreciate every minute of having a shelter we call home.
In the travel doco ‘Journey to the End of the World’, Billy Connolly said, “There’s no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong clothes”. We (hopefully) have all the right clothes for all types of weather ahead of us.
Yesterday, we finally had a chance to test run our just-pampered bikes (new tyres, new chain, new cables, new brake pads) thanks to Bruce, our mate from work. We rode around Iron Cove in the morning clocking about 26km before we returned to Milson’s Pt and said farewell to Bruce. Thanks for riding with us, Bruce!
The day continued with preparation for our departure. By the end of the day, we are that much more ready for our new adventure. 2 more days!
