Sunday. October 10. Day 72







Even though our base camp is still in Mosselbay, we took the road out of there today heading towards Swellendam. The road was pretty standard so Puddy maintained an average of 20km/h. We did a total of 21 km’s today pushing us through the 1500km mark and on to a total of 1509 km’s done on Skate for Change 2010.

1500km mark!

We also bade farewell to our accommodation of one night which Max arranged for us and booked into some new housing, a nice comfortable apartment at the Point Village Hotel.

Backpackers who gave us a nights free accommodation.

The conditions were nice today, not too much wind and not too hot. Puddy spent a lot of time skating behind the van where Max kept him company and the two joked around quite a bit. Anything to get your mind off skating a flat surface for 25k’s straight a day...








At sunset we all gathered for a nice cool drink and something to eat. Whales leapt out of the water as if they where saluting us – or we like to think so at least. Tomorrow back on the road as we are getting closer to our destination day by day.

Safety First. part off the safety dance we do prior to each session.
