Sylvia's walk comes to an end

[See earlier blog about Sylvia's Walk]

Members of Brave Hearts Dragons Abreast were honoured to meet Jenny and Sharon at the end of their walk along the Hume and Hovell track. Their walk of over 400 km was through rugged and hilly bush country but they arrived at the Hovell Tree in Albury in a remarkably fit and happy state. They were very happy to share a glass of champagne with us and were also keen to find the location of the nearest laundry. Although none of us had ever met Sylvia, we were attending our first ever dragon boat event at the Nagambie Nationals on the day she passed away. We could tell from the speeches that were made that day that she was a very special lady. It seems that she has passed her special qualities onto some of her friends too.
