Days 23 and 24    22 & 23 July   Rest days in Perth

Chance to sleep in this morning then the normal rest day chores,  washing clothes, service the bike, pick up wife from airport etc etc. (not listed in order of importance).

Also had the Navara serviced.  Done 10,000km since it left home so was in need of new oil and filter. Arrange Mobile Lube guy to come to us as there were four vehicles that needed service.

Robyn arrived soon after lunch.  Good to see her again after three and a half weeks.  We decided to move out of the luxurious accommodation provided by Jim and move into a B&B for the night.  Sometime we have to suffer the hardships of normal life.

Roughing it at B&B


 

New standard for Bike 4 Bibles breakfast

Had dinner with old friends from 2009 trip from Perth to Sydney.  Garry and Veronica opened their home to Jim & Lyn & Nick, Mark & his wife Robyn,  Robyn and I.  Had a great time reminiscing and catching up with their news.  The old stories are just as funny now after 4 years.  It was a wonderful night.  Garry is joining the ride from Perth to Esperance.

Tuesday Robyn and  I ( after dragging ourselves away from our temporary accommodation) drove north to catch up with  Daniel, Anna and Noah.   Had lunch with Anna, picked up Noah after his first day in new school and caught Daniel after work.  Lovely to see them all.  They seem settled in Perth and have just moved into their new home (still not finished).

Arrived back at camp in time for team meeting,  greeting new riders, etc before early lights out again.
