With an ominous presentiment, four of us left Esperance for Albany which is the fourth largest city in this state locating on the southern coast and is home for 34,000 residents.
kz was driving this round and kp sat next to him in the car, we 2 girls sat at the back. Nothing was unusal. kz drove at a speed of130kph plus since no vehicle can be found along the road for hours and I didn't see any speed limit sign along the way either..Three of us fell asleep after a long day in the beach...all of a sudden at about 7pm, 180 km away from our destination, I felt the speed was changed, it seemed something was in front and kz quickly put on the brake..with our least expectation... we hit the kangeroo! The animal died on the spot and my darling kp's favourite little Ford damaged!! With kz's disbelief kp announced another news ''the car is not insured'' .....
K, time to let you know the environment at that moment, in the middle of nowhere, we, 4 people altogether have 5 mobile phones, 1 with testra network, 2 with optus and 2 with Hutchison 3G, none of them got signals!! As if it was not part of Australia..oh yeah, at that particular minute it started thundering..
With common sense the only thing we could do was to see if there were any other vehicle passed by and to seek their assistance! And I know God will make a way where there is no way! After 20 minutes waiting 2 cars passed by and they are local inhabitants (their houses are 10km away) who know the place very well and yah they helped us to contact someone (wondering why their phone was covered by telstra network!) whose job is to tow the damaged vehicles out to the town. Another 40 minutes later the truck driver arrived and another 2 hours later we, both us and the broken car got to Albany...at a towing cost of $450....and it was almost midnight!Believe or not the two cars passed by were the only 2 cars we saw along the way in the following 3 hours!
Thank God at that moment I felt surprisingly calm what I did was get out of the car and took the pictures for every detail and kept them filed.
(This is kp's damaged babe that has been treasured by him for months, sniff!)
(road condition! has been like this for the last three hours from Esperance)
( the truck finally came to the rescue)
( We arrived our apartment in Albany at almost midnight)
