Fun!!


Today was a very short day, but very interesting. In the morning - when we woke up - I had breakfast. It was a little bit of cereal stuff with nuts, mashed banana and flakes, and a piece of toast with the rest of the banana on top of it. It's really good!!

I read a little bit of the book I'm reading - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - in the mean time. Soon, though, we left to go and have a look at this place called Principality of Hutt River. It's this sort of farm station that is a completely a different country to Australia!! And we didn't need to have passports either!!

First we looked into the souvenir shop, it was really good. We got some post cards and went into this other place. We read all the things there and then went to the sheering place. There were people there, sheering the sheep. There were three sheep shearers, and they were really rough with the sheep.

One man - who sorted out the wool - came over to us and let us hold a lamb!! It was SO cute!!!! Even though it was heavy. The lamb had a little bit of fur, even though it had never been shorn. Then we went with the man to see how the wool was sorted. It was sorted by it's length! When the sheep had been finished and were sort of naked, they slid down this shoot thing to the paddock outside.

After that we went to see the sheep who hadn't been shorn and were inline. There were black, brown and white sheep. There were lots of lambs too. There was this little black one I thought was REALLY cute. Soon we had to go to the car.

On the way back my brother and I had a debate on which was the best - lambs or fish. Dad also explained how it was a total different country. And here it is:
Leonard Casley was a very clever man. When the government said his land had to be less, he didn't agree. He complained and declared they were in war. He thought it was unfair that he should have smaller land because he had more things on his farm. The government just laughed atthe letter of war. A few days later he declared the war off. This meant that he won. This because the person you declares war over, gets do make the next decision thing. He also declared that he wasn't part of Australia anymore, he was a different country, and he could have all the land he wanted. Leonard was a very clever man who knew the law very well. He outwitted the government many more times too.

We stopped at a few lookouts on the way back too. We saw a pod of dolphins and a dugong. It was really good. Soon we went back to the caravan and had lunch. Then we had a little rest and went fishing. I had to wait a bit because the bait had do though out. Meanwhile I wanted to take the hook out of my brothers fish he caught. One fell off the hook and was wiggling on the jetty. I picked it up with one hand and…… guess what????!!!! It sunk its teeth into the finger on my other arm!!! IT HURT!!

It was bleeding like water coming out of a fountain. I went off with dad to put a banned on it. Well, maybe it wasn't that tragic. Anyway, I kept fishing and soon we had to go home. At the caravan I took my bandaid off and gave it fresh air. After a while we had dinner. It was vegetables and rice. After dinner I wrote my journal and had a shower with mum. Then dad and my brother set off for some night fishing. After a while I watched a movie with mum and went to bed. What a great day. I traveled from one whole land to another totally different land in one day!! Without a passport too!!!

Saya melihat geréja.
Sungguh-sungguh lama geréja.
Saya melihat domba.
Satu anak domba terlalu.
Saya melihat ikan.
Saya seperti seabacus banyak.
Saya punyai sungguh-sungguh baik hari hari ini.
Saya punyai sungguh-sungguh baik waktu hari ini.
Saya belajar seabacus banyak hari ini.
Semua séhat.
