A new highway, a new direction

Heading south on the Coolgardie Esperance Highway now. Finished almost 60km down the road towards Norseman, which we should reach on Thursday. The team are staying in a fabulous place tonight, the Kambalda High School Home Economics lab! We've got access to the gym and library, but unfortunately net restrictions mean I can't update the website tonight. We'll do it Norseman - and boy are there some cracking pictures on the way!

Yesterday we rested in Kalgoorlie. Did two live radio interviews with ABC Goldfields and Radio West, will get those online shortly. Also was interviewed by the Golden Mail and the Kalgoorlie Miner, the latter put me on their front page this morning, amazing! We also visited the Coolgardie Primary School, who were lovely and had very intelligent, attentive kids.

Tomorrow the team and I will be attending a few school assemblies in Kambalda before getting back on the road. Earlier today a man from a local mine was waiting for me on the road. Tomorrow he's taking the team down a mine, 3/4 of a kilometre down! There's barely any time for skating!

Promise to update the website soon, sat phone will be in action from tomorrow night. Everyone's good, it's bed time now - big day tomorrow.
