Note: My first Zero day and I could not have asked for a better place to take it.

A late start to my Zero Day (0700) and I was already hard at it.

Todays 11:00 picture is taken in the Trampers Kitchen Facility, lucky me I was the only one in it at the time.

So this picture was taken yesterday, however I couldn’t have you miss out. The owner Gabbie and her dog Kippa sing Opera together, what a crack up.

More wild horses, this lot were about 100 metres from my room .

My bunk space, power plug and lights, but I scored I was the only occupant.

The Hand makes its daily Appearance, just hanging around the Bunk House.

The Hut on the right is mine.

We have our first Trail Name, this is Jerome AKA the “Smoothy” Gabbie our host gave him the name.
