JP and i have just pulled into Carnarvon, Northwest Australia. We are 2 of a few of surfers making our way through town and gathering supplies; the produce shop for fresh veg, the bottle shop for cans and grape juice, the grocery store for food stuffs, the internet for a final touch and go with the emails, and finally the fuel depot for a full tank plus 2 jerry cans for outback exploring. We see the other surfers preparing their rigs as we bounce around town from one supply center to the next.

There is a good swell on the way, should last 3 days, starting today, and show John the potential of the place, so i am very excited. We are buying supplies for 2 weeks, but not sure how long we will stay...though John needs to be back at the Perth airport on the 20th of September. Deadlines have worked well for me on this trip, keeping me moving along at a steady, though not to fast, pace of life and travel.

And we're off...the best to all of you.
