Almost ready to go...
Tomorrow's the big day, the first of fourteen days of tight scheduling, lots of walking, hearing inspiring stories, and fundraising for a vital cause.
In the past few days Dave and Kathleen have been interviewed by The Examiner (Sunday Examiner; 16th Dec 2012) and ABC Northern Tasmania (Thursday 20th Dec 2012). Word is spreading of this amazing vision!
A trip like this doesn't just plan itself overnight. Months of planning have gone into this trip, and many people have amazingly offered time, goods and services along the way.
Huge thanks so far go to:
* Carman's for two weeks' worth of muesli bars and muesli
* Gary and Diana for the use of their car for the trip
* Bron and David for offering to be chauffeurs
* everyone who has so far donated via Everyday Hero Australia or in the buckets around Flinders Island.
David and Kathleen will be carrying fundraising buckets with them on their walks. If you see them out and about, please give generously. (In the interests of keeping the buckets light and D&K's energy levels high please donate notes instead of coins! ;-)
