Outback Adventures

After yesterday I have decided to concentrate on the positives in my life, because they are so much better than doom and gloom.  Recently my family and I have travelled through Australia or parts of for 6 weeks.  Three kids and my partner in a Land cruiser confined to the small space of our seats and camping in a tent, was magical.  Others may not agree but we really enjoyed ourselves.  The kids kept a journal over the weeks, below is a map from their book of the route we drove .


Over 10,000km together and we experienced life itself.  Now who wouldn't be a on a high after coming back from such a fantastic trip.  Coming from the most incredible places back to the chores of life, I can see why I would have plummeted into the abyss.  Highs and lows isn't that what it's all about, riding the highs and how we deal with the lows.  I was meant to travel.  This map will one day have many lines and colours on it, of the places we've been and the roads we've explored.

Long that yellow line we had an adventure that my children will remember for a long time, that I will cherish for years to come.  We trekked gorges, climbed mountains, found interesting objects and bones, camped underground, met possums and bats, walked through caves, found aliens, watched whales, seen one of the wonders of the world, walked high above rainforests, found dinosaurs, marvelled at glow worms, went rock climbing, found secret waterfalls, canoed, rode horses and best of all spent time with our family.


We had a family reunion to attend along the way it was great to see everyone, but honestly these people I call family many of them are strangers.  Our family is spread far and wide and I am not really close to any that is not in my immediate family.  I don't know their children, their new wives or husbands, for most even where they live.  I met people for the first time, seen people I hadn't seen in many years, and sat back and watched from a distance while people mingled. I felt as though I didn't know anyone, and that was true in many ways I didn't.  Just as they didn't know me and who my children were. Yeah sure people knew our names and that we were family, but they didn't know who I was what makes me the person I am.  My life's story, and that's ok because its only the people closest to us that we let in, show the true person we are.  Its the people closest to us that accept us for all the good and bad, for the demons.  Its the people who give us unconditional love that really know the truth.  Which brings me to the one person in this world that fits the bill, my sister.
 
My whole fitness journey started from the moment I seen my beautiful sister back in December 2012. 

She inspired me back then and continues to inspire me now.  I love her dearly and wished that we lived closer to each other, I'm yet to find a friend like her.  I must say the high light of out trip was hiking through Lawn Hill Gorge with my sister.  We had been quite lazy while camping and hadn't done much in terms of exercise, I even allowed myself to consume the odd ice cream.  Which if any of you know is a real treat whilst on a weight loss journey.  We walked 7km through the gorge up to the lookout.  The boys and the kids canoed through the gorge.
This is us looking down on them from the lookout
