If I Was… (by Lulu and Mom)

(Preamble by mom!)

When you travel for many many hours in the HOT sun and driving in the camper….with NOTHING around….you make up new word games.

The road to Canarvon – 120km with 16 vehicles (cars/campers/vans etc) and 6 road trains …..

One car passed us….and I overtook one ROADTRAIN…with 60km/hr winds…thank goodness the road is STRAIGHT AND NOONE IS OUT HERE (also – truck drivers are really nice and signal you when it is safe for you to pass…then you gun it and hold on tight with two hands!)

And…lots of road kill…. (so far in three days of driving 30 kangaroo, 6 emu, one snake, one cow and one bird (care of the front windshield).

Some live animals too…18 live kangaroo, 2 emus crossing the road, one DINGO…and one lizard (I am not sure he made it…..)

So – here are Lulu’s writings….with corrections (she is learning the English spelling still and practicing her cursive!)

 

…more road travels to come…

    Lulu I like the reasoning behind your choices. For favourite colour, blue is a good choice as you have stunning blue eyes. We hope you share more of your stories.

    Lulu you are a good writer. Learning cursive is hard. Keep practicing you are doing fine. We enjoyed seeing the photos too. You had a lot of counting while you were driving. Sad to think so many kangaroos are killed on the roads. Figuring out games to play is fun! Ask mom if she remembers car bingo when she was your age and we were on camping trips. Enjoy your adventures.
    Love you bunches. Hugs ?

    Hi Lulu! Geez’ you’ve been so many places since I’ve seen you last! It looks so so fun, even if you have to drive for a long time; you make up ways to keep yourself entertained. Anyways, you’re not missing much here, it’s so snowy, cold, and no one’s really sure whether to wear snow boots or shoes!? I really can’t wait to hear all about your trip in 2019, and hope the you have an amazing time! See you soon!!
