No 4x4ing trip is complete without a few cars getting stuck, heres a pic of conrad's car getting stuck in the sand.. you cant see it but hes on the edge of a big dune.. unfortunately my phone ran out of batteries and i wasnt able to take any more pics!.. anyway after playing around in the main lancelin dunes we headed north along a few tracks inland then along the beach to wedge island.. Wedge island is this crazy place here in West Australia where people have built shacks more or less in the middle of no-where on the coast.. I don't think anyone actually 'owns' the land but they pay rates.. I think alot of people just have a shared holiday shack with their mates up here.. all of em seem to be constructed out of old rusty corrogated steel, although some are painted.. quite a few have antennas kicking out off the roof so i guess some-body/every-body has a generator.. over 1 or 2 sand dunes from the 'village' is the beach and there is the actual 'wedge island' that was probably about 300m out from the edge of the land.. the four of us swam out to the island and chilled there for a while, came back and towed eachother around in a plastic clamshel (the things kids use for sandpits and stuff).. it was awesome fun.. really similar to tubeing, but on sand and a little more painful hehe.. I've got some ideas for the next version of the clam-shell-towing-device.. (more padding being one of them).. One strange thing that happened during the day is that I got a bee-sting while clambering around on a sand dune!!.. no plants in sight! really weird!! I havent had a beesting for years, and im kinda illergic to them.. well i used to be.. luckily my aunt had this cream that I put on and it made my hand kinda numb and stopped any major swelling, today my body is feeling really tired.. im not sure if its to do with the sting, or just having a really big day yesterday.. ah well.. Good times, Good times..
