Back from O.S

View from our hotel in Scotland,south of Glencoe

After eight and a half weeks in Europe,UK,and Ireland we are back in Australia.It was a great time overseas and we were continually on the go.Caught up with friends and family and saw so much.
Now we are on the road and enjoying the experience.This last week was spent in Robe,south of Adelaide and for the next five weeks leading up to Christmas we will be on the West coast in the Port Lincoln / Coffin bay area.
Once the Christmas celebrations are over it's off to Melbourne till 9th January and then we travel on the Spirit of Tasmania to Devenport.
In Tassie we will start looking for work and seeing that part of Australia.How long we will be there depends on how much there is to see.

Finally !!!

Chris and i finally moved out of the house and into our new home,an A van Tayla MK 2.
I was once advised by someone,that when it comes to deciding what to take on a round OZ trip the best thing to do is lay everything out and then halve it, how true !!!!!
We feel we are nearly there,48 hours later.
We leave for our European/UK holiday in seven days,which will be the official start to our semi retirement and the blog will be updated when we get internet access.

Sold

15 Riversdale drive

   

The house and old van are now sold,all that remains is to sell off as much furniture as possible.Chris and i gave notice to our respective employers last week.We hope to be on a flight to Europe on 28th August and when we get back late October we begin the 'Lap' of Aussie. Watch this space !!!!

Sooner than later.

Our plans have now been moved forward.The house will be on the market mid June(next month)and as soon as it sells we head off to Europe and the UK.The plan is to be back in Australia around November and then we will go to Tasmania for a working holiday.
Life's too short to wait around.

Having established this Blogg is our first step towards 'Howeverlongittakes'.During the next ten months we will be getting the house ready for sale.Having lived there for over thirteen years it will be hard to hand over the keys.
Once sold,a six to eight week holiday to England and Europe with a stop over in Singapore should get us into semi retirement mode,and then Australia awaits :)
