What the hell james..
Day 39
The fun begins around noon today with us heading out to the barron river for some whitewater rafting levels 2-3 which was fun, but not the rush we were looking for. Although we did have a blast riding the river without the boat for a bit. And some of the smalled rapids through us around pretty good, I didn’t fall out which was a bonus.(waiting for pictures still) While we did that Jackie skipped ahead and we and jumped from a 50m tower or 164 feet whichever you prefer, pretty intense, she loved it and says we have to try it. She also went on the minjin swing, a swing that drops you form 45m up and you hit 120km/h y the bottom. All seemed like a super fun day till we started heading home, it was dark and started to rain and of course that weather means, another flat tire… hmm… 2 flats 1 good tire… not cool. Luckily we had a guy stop and give me a lift to the gas station to repair 1 of my flats, alrighty were good? Not quite after about 10km on the flat repair the sidewall gives out for the

our new friend peter
last time… alright… through the last tire which has a tear forming down the middle in buddies truck and to his house we go. He has a Toyota landcruiser with a 6 bolt pattern we can borrow a tire from if it matches. After stuffing about 4 patches in the ripped tire to no avail we measure the Toyota tire up, a perfect match!! Thank god. We limp her home at 40km/h.
