Walk the Walk

During June and July 2006, Amy Banson will walk 1,463 km from Brisbane to Canberra. This charity walk is in support of people with brain injury and their families. Her goal is to raise awareness about Aquired Brain Injury (ABI), and to raise money to provide respite care for people living with ABI.

Amy's diary entry 4

I think I was asleep before my head hit the pillow last night. Got up nice and early and started the stroll from Dalveen to Stanthorpe. Stroll is a nice word and I like to use it . . . just going for a stroll from Brisbane to Canberra. It's this type of language that convinced me it could be done - now I've just got to make sure the legs keep striding it out.

I lost two bucks on a bet yesterday that Dalveen had a pub. The local (note: not plural) was amused when I asked directions to the drinking lounge. Apparently the closest we were going to get was the town hall on a Friday night. Byo.

Walked past a deer farm today. I then thought how cool it would be to have a pet deer, and whether I could take my deer for a walk through downtown Stanthorpe or better yet - teach my pet deer to fetch a ball. I then felt bad for admiring the deer when there were some great cows to look at and I then started up a conversation with Pete to stop my thoughts getting too weird.

It's my turn to cook dinner for the crew tonight. With all these animals around I decided pasta was the go. Anything to avoid negative vibes from the upcoming cattle of Tenterfield.
