2000km Walk - 0km to go - Bagpipes, balloons and rain

"The counter on the 2000 Walk website is at zero - and 'zero' is a wonderful number when you've been counting down from 2000km!  We're home - and 'home' is a beautiful word when you've been away for 80 days!"

“Our walk day started at 9am - we watched the sky turn from a perfect blue when we started walking to a perfect overcast and cool walking day a couple of hours later. Then as the kilometres crunched underfoot we watched the clouds become darker and heard the distant rumble of thunder. And by the end of the day, in perfect timing ... the rain came down on all 100 of us as we walked the last kilometre to the finish line."

"The helium balloons lost some of their 'lift' in the rain, but our spirits didn't as the piper led us in to the cheer-squad waiting on the homestead verandah out of the rain."

All up, about 350 people joined in the celebrations.
