Yeeeeehaaaaaw...

Well we're back on the road and have assumed our usual, familar position in a McDonalds Cafe. The world feels right again as we tear down the motorway (well, that's an exaggeration as Will doesn't tear and slow lorries overtake us regularly) Sam and Will throwing punches as we sing Oasis at the top of our lungs. Sam gives the thumbs up to road side workers and we are free free free...

That said it was a wrench to leave the comfort of home, the re-runs of Top Gear and umm The Brady Bunch were unfortunately very appealing. But here we are exploring again all squished uncomfortably into the front of the van and loving it.

We are headed to Byron Bay or maybe beyond. Will has drivers fever and won't stop (except for food) and wants to drive as far as he possibly can - hopefully he will stop soon as there is an awful long way one can go in Australia. The van, is sparkly and clean (apart from the dodgy, smelly cushions)and doesn't smell quite so much of sick. So who knows where we are going to stay tonight, but that's just the way we like it - a little bit of the unknown!! The weather is overcast but even that can't dampen our spirits and I'm looking forward to a sing a long to Simon and Garfunkel for the next leg... 'Iam a Rock I am an iiiiiisland,'

Only a quick update as Will needs to email his friend and I am in a race against a Big Mac!!!

  1. Great to hear your 'on the road' voice once more. One can feel the freedom, know the whiff of life experiences. Go girl.

    Love
