Monday 9 June

Today was the rainiest day of my life. In Australia when it rains it rains a heck of a lot. We were going to go on a boat to Fremantle but when we drove there we could not see out of the window so we did not go. Then my dad said he had to go to a meeting with our friend Richard and we all could go to a museum. So when we got there we ran in but we were still soaked. When we went there Richard gave us a tour and we saw a picture of him and then we saw his great 6 times grandmother in a picture. Then we had lunch in the art museum. Finally we got to the car and drove to where my dads meeting was.
After dads meeting was over we went to an art place where they made pictures of aboriginal art, and we looked at a picture of the Canning stock route. Finally we went back home and had a very good dinner. I had a very nice day.

* Note the Cannning Stock route is where the road in central Australia stops – and was used to drive cattle down – 1800 kilometers (in a straight line), there were 100’s of wells dug to supply water. Now 4WD can make the route – but it is very difficult with no fuel stop for a 1000 miles.
