One of things that we wanted to tell you all about was our weekend trip to the Outback. We went with Brett & Helen and Kerry & Dave (plus kids ranging from 1 - 18 years old). Helen & Brett's friends own a 26,000 acre sheep ranch in the middle of nowhere and so we went bush for a couple of days. They had warned us we would get dirty, and being English we naturally equate 'dirty' with 'muddy' but not so in Australia! We got covered in dirt - red dust-dirt.
On the Saturday night we had a camp fire and cooked our food in the fire. We got a load of veggies & meat with a couple of oxo cubes and wrapped it tightly in tin foil. We then put this in the embers of the fire and 30 minutes later we each had our own delicious stew - yummy. No washing up either - result!
We had a great time riding around on motorbikes and chasing kangaroos! Neither of us had ridden a motorbike before and loved the experience.
It was a fab weekend and one we would love to do again. Maybe Helen & Brett will take us out when you come to visit...
