Aidan breaks 1 min., Cole does his first races, we amble onwards!
Sorry to have missed a couple of days - I've been fighting for the internet link with Jen who is currently doing the books. After almost a year of trying (but not much training) Aidan has finally broken the elusive 60 sec mark in his freestyle. He's been training almost every evening with the local swim club and it's paid off. His previous best was 1:04 and he dropped to 58.9! Cole was smoking fast as well given that he was barely doing dog paddle a couple weeks ago and clocked a 1:25 in his 50m backstroke and 1:20 in his freestyle - very impressive! We've had to put our imminent trip to Alice Springs on hold as for some reason my registration in the NT won't allow me to locum in the hospital there as a GP emergency doctor or ED Registrar - it doesn't make much sense but oh well - might be a blessing in disguise. We'll probably take our time through the Flinder's Ranges, head up to Coober Pedy then back down to Port Lincoln and the Eyre peninsula en route to WA and maybe some more work. Maybe we'll get back to Alice from the top end or look out for pertinent conferences in the area for a family trip via Qantas. This being our last weekend in the Adelaide area we think we'll try to get into the Barossa Valley and tour around Adelaide and the Port a little more.
