Flying Fox Pile Drivers

Cally: Chantelle? Are you guys getting shit on over there?
Chantelle: No, why?
Cally: We're getting pile drived over here!

Haha, I haven't laughed that hard since the last car ride and someone's smelly fart.....the huge bats in Rockhampton decided to poop all over our tents and chairs! Karen was so scared to pee during the night that she contemplated (for over an hour) if she should just pee in her sleeping bag and pay for the dry cleaning the next day! IN the end, she sumo-squatted herself away from the tent and peed as fast as she could while the large ugly beasts swooped at her head! What a night! We packed her up quickly and got out of dodge.....


We headed to Emerald, Sapphire and Rubyvale and did some mining for sapphires and found a few, it was pretty neat! The cutest old lady gave us a tour and helped us with the mining and she loved giving us a hard time about our tattooes and peircings (Does you mother know about that?) haha.

We rolled into Mackay late and found a tent spot only to be awoken a few hours later by a huge storm rolling through - luckily our tents are state of the art and we made it (without pegs!)

    Sounds like you guys are having so much fun. Dont know how much trouble you are staying out of though?!?! Things are good here. Shana has phoned Sean(AKA Canada) and is keeping an eye out for him.
    Can't wait to see you and see all the pics!
    Love Kris

    I did warn you about those "flying foxes"! Wait until you go to Paronella Park (if you do) - yucky!!
    So you did find some sapphires? Was is worth it to you? I'm glad you went. We'll have to compare gems when you get home!!
