Hello from Tennant Creek

Internet access has been sporadic, so most of our updates will probably appear later in out trip when we are at Airlie Beach. We are in Tennant Creek right now, enjoying the mild evening 19 degrees minimum. Everyone is still travelling well and enjoying our trip. We are all looking forward to spending a few days in Lawn Hill National Park in the next few days, and just staying in the one place for a few days.

We have covered a lot of kilometres so far, and taken a lot of photographs, so as time permits there will be more on here to show you what we have been up to.

Until then...

One Sleep!!!!!

Wow we are really close now. The camper is mostly packed. All we need to do is put ice in the esky, pack the fridge and the clothes bags into the car, and we are ready to go.  People keep asking if we are excited yet, but to tell the truth we have been too busy to get too excited. I think at about 9.30am tomorrow the excitement will start!

Our current plan is to leave home tomorrow morning around 8.40am and head over to the McDonalds place, then get on the road on our way to Balranald. Here's hoping that everything goes according to plan.

Thanks to those of you who have left comments, its great to hear from our friends while we are on this big adventure.

More soon, from the road :)

Two Sleeps!!!

The excitement is really building now. All of the kids are now on holidays, Milo the dog has been delivered to his holiday home (my guess is he wont even want to come home after spending seven weeks with A&M they sure know how to spoil him), and the trailer is half packed.

Today has been super busy, and tomorrow will probably be worse, but it will all be worth it when we hit the road on Sunday morning.

Six sleeps

Six sleeps until we leave on our long awaited trip. The last few weeks have been hectic to say the least, there have been modifications to be made to the camper trailer, bookings to be made, equipment to be purchased, and lots of "thinking" about how good it is going to be.

Some of the places we are going may not have internet connections, so we will blog as we can. Please read along and feel free to leave comments, but remember, this is a family blog, and it will be accessed by children.
