**Updating Sunday - end of week 2
Did practice walk for Oxfam Trailfinder yesterday - Mosman to Ararat Reserve 26kms return, managed to do in six hours and it was a gorgeous walk, starting on in Mosman and walking past Balmoral beach, gorgeous area, it is the final leg of the walk so we were very pleased at the scenery. The bushtrek was quite good, a few climbs and rocks to get up and over and down... Donna using the "just slide on your backside" regime.
We had a little detour - but managed to come back onto the trail quite easily. When we got to the end we could hear people and were excited to see where we had ended up, we found a rugby game - go the Ferrets!! We were planning to have our muesli bars and bananas for a snack stop but then we saw and smelt the greatest thing - SAUSAGE SIZZLE!! Oh my how good that smelt... onions on the BB!...We had been walking for 3hrs and has only snacked a little, but this smell just got the taste buds going..... we just had to partake, sat down for about 15mins and watched the game, ate and repacked my water - and then we trekked back the way we came. The first couple minutes I was thinking ouch my legs are stiff I don't want to do this, but by 15mins I was back in full swing and feeling strong and energetic (good to remember for actual trek).

M3: Sausage sizzle/white bread/tomato sauce/onions oh so very goooood!!
