..and the training continues

As the 24 August fast approaches Dad and I have done various hikes all in the nameof ‘training’. We have been exposed to the elements -  learned the difference between showerproof,waterproof and Gore-Tex. Dad has also taken up sprint training practice with aherd of young bullocks on his heels. Most importantly we have mastered theoptimum packed lunch – and now know not to give dad the job of tea making.
