David finally arrived at Federation Square around 12.00 am. Today the 7th Jan. He looked tanned, trim and terrific. He was glad the cracked rim didn't decide to crack it! Upon his arrival, a family of cyclists (Richard, Jackie, Katie, David and Andrew) decided to join us for the photoshoot with Deputy Lord Mayor Susan Riley, and her secretary June. They were most impressed with David's achievements and the Deputy Lord Mayor encouraged David to continue with his pursuit for the cause the cycling4africa has promoted. Before heading for home though, David had one more ride in mind, a quick trip to ABC Melbourne Radio to organise an interview in the near future. David then continued on his journey home. No, he didn't take the train, as I did, he continued to cycle to the Salvation Army Church in Altona. The Hobson's Bay Mayor, Peter Hemphill, the journo and photographers for 'The Star' and 'The Laverton - Altona Mail' local papers, family, his c

On Friday David and I were taken out to dinner by our friends at the Salavtion army. Carole picked us up with her car as the downpour threatened to drown us. It just didn't stop raining all day and all night. It was a great evening to relax and unwind. Saturday we had planned to do some sightseeing around Canberra, but unfortunately David was very tired and needed to catch up with some rest. By the time I had organised some places to see and was ready to go, it wasn't hard to figure out where David had dissappeared to, the snoring led me to his room. Needless to say, sightseeing had to wait. The weather was very unpredictable. The rain had stopped but the wind was blowing a gale. After a good sleep we went to the local market, did some shopp ing and went back to our residence to cook a meal full of carbs! It was a great day. On Sunday 12th Dec, Carole again picked me up to go to fellowship at the Salvation Army in Braddon, while David cycled in. We were welcomed with open

Hi all It has been a very successful journey at many levels. If you have been connecting with the Blog you will know I have engaged with the media (radio and newspapers) and the schools. Yesterday, I spent a good part of the day with Major Peter Holly (Salvation Army National Secretary) who is very excited about the Salvation Army's involvement (Altona/Williamstown Core) and the journey. Today I have an a udience with Margaret Watt (Chief of Staff) for Mr. McMullan (Secretary for International Development Assistance). At this time, I will be expressing some concern about the real possibility heads of state from the developed world reneging on their Official Development Assistance - the global economic crisis has diverted much attention from aid assistance as reflected by the lack of attendance by the developed world at the Funding for Development recently in Doha. While Mr. McMullan did consent to an audience with me, this wasn'
