Cat and i are still in Ularu and will be till the day after tommorow. WE have been seeing the rock both at sunrise and sunset it is amazing and if it is there cat has taken a pic of it. I have not been updating a lot since internet is expensive here but all is well. we have both tried crocodile and kangroo. It is pretty good actually. This morning we woke at 5am and walked around the base of the rock with a breakfast of tea and cookies. Very nice but very cold -4. Tonight we are going to another rock and then tommorow morning to see ayers again before having the rest of the day to us to enjoy the amazing food. We found this place that is not fancy buut has all kinda things to cook yourself on the bbq (very aussie) and fresh veggies so very neat and i plan to write more then. love trish

So, what is the “Sounds of Silence” dinner? Makes me think of an old married couple who have nothing left to say to each other. One is probably reading the newspaper. How long did it take you to get to Ularu? Are you spending three days there? Is there lots to see other than a big rock? I have eaten crocodile but not kangaroo. I’ll take your word for it that it is “pretty good”. It sounds like you have had quite a range of temperatures. Do you have enough clothes? At least you won’t be getting sunburned at -4! It has been really hot around here but it sounds like that is about to change. We are going over to a friend’s house in Port Moody for dinner today and then it is back to work again tomorrow. Perhaps we will get some work done in the garden today. We hope that you are still having a great time and look forward to your next posting.

The sounds of silence is a great dinner overlooking the rock. With white tables and champagne and plenty of sights and sta0rgazing you dine with other couples while a digeeridoo player plays. The digeridoo is a long meloudus local instrument like a oversize flute. Imagine getting out of the city out of the lights and being fed gourmet meal by candles. Very very cool
