Day 33
7/9/2010
Thomas Eric Ford |
Great news on the Thomas front, Brett & Mary saw the pediatrician yesterday, his instruction was to cease breast feeding and immediately and transfer to a formula, this they did from the next feed, instant success. Last night Mary had 7 hours sleep, praise God. Tomorrow is their last day in Perth before flying out on Thursday at 1pm; Brett has to attend court for a case he is involved in from the island also trips to the pediatrician, chiropractor, obstetrician plus several other last minute incidentals that must be done. Thank you for your prayers and please keep praying for this little family.
Tonight we are at Esperance (33.84’573s 121.90’ 131e), an uneventful day apart from the weather being truly wonderful, sunny all day about 22 degrees and just yum. After tea we went for a walk to the local jetty, no sooner had we stepped onto the jetty and there was this almighty splash in the water, not one but two seals splashing and chasing each other, one is huge the other about half the size, no camera, sorry. As the information goes, these seals are residents of the area always waiting for a feed from the fishermen as they clean their daily catch, apparently they put on quite a show, tail walking, head stands, flapping it’s flippers and other tricks to get the fish, boy are we lucky.
Tomorrow we start heading across the Nularbor, we don’t know how long this will take or where we will have phone contact.
Catch you tomorrow
John & Sheryle
