Leaving for ESCarpade. The day we were all waiting for had arrived.
After the whole crew being awake at 3am we left Brisbane at 4.50am,.
Caz , Jason's wife sent us off with great wishes and loads of luck in dealing with Jason and Daz for a week... it was going to be interesting.
Car driving nicely - until Toowoomba - when we stopped at McDonalds for breakfast -
there was a horrible grinding / rattling
noise coming from under the car.
Quick running repairs to the heat
shield over the muffler - daz quickly
under the car to adjust - all done.
An uneventful drive to Goondiwindi.
First fuel stop for the trip and a photo
opportunity under the EsCarpade banner in the main streets.
Jason needed to stop at a convenience store
- as he went into the store , he noticed an elderly gentleman slumped in a
chair,turning a light shade of blue and gradually falling to the floor.
Jason raced out- yelling to Darren to bring
the oxysock and BP cuff. then the guys
went to the gentleman's aid .Then handed over to QAS.
Turns out he was 94 years old , had driven
from Sydney the night before heading towards Cairns . He had decided to stop at
Goondiwindi and bus the rest of the way - lucky he did.
So the boys have done their good deed for
the day and hopefully the karma gods will look favourably on the crew as we
make our way from Narrabri to Goondiwindi.
Arrived in
Narrabri about 1.30 ,
Settlled in , got comfy then headed into town
to check out the shops and find some lunch.
Walking down town , we discovered a pop up
shop - . Then
just as we were walking out - would you believe it? WHERE'S WALLY THONGS ....
wow Treen was so psyched .
We were there - in Narrabri just waiting
for friends to play with - bring on Friday.
