Ryan's best friend Nick asked us if we want to go to the Motocross down in Manjimup since it was the public holiday weekend. Cheryl, Ryan and me were off work and Gary's contract wasn't through so we headed off at 5am yesterday morning (Sunday!!!!!! 5am!!) with rolls and munchies haha it took around 3-4 hours to get there. I've been to a few live sporting events but never anything to do with bikes! It was really good, had a an awesome laugh especially with Chery...

So I am back in sunny Springsure! It's been about a month since I left Melbourne. Got picked up from the airport by Shane, slightly hungover cause I decided to go out all night with Lesley haha saying goodbye to her at the airport was just terrible.

The Thursday was a free day, so anyone could go, but I turned up around 2-3ish and met Ryan along with his two Scottish friends ...

DAY ONE After an amazing night sleeping in a bed again, the alarm goes off at 5.20am(!!!) for the next trip. The hostel provides free breakfast from 5-9am. There's bread, tea and coffee, but I'm still in the 'one eye open' phase so I sit and wait on the pick up. We get picked up by our guide GeaJay at 5.50am and a group of 22 board the little bus.
