Hi folks
This is it. After delays lasting three years we are finally off on monday for our big trip. Leaving Newcastle west to Wilcannia, White Cliffs, Mutawingie, Tibooburra, Innamincka, Birdsville (Hi Ruth). Down the Track to Marree and up the other side to Oodnadatta (hi John) and Dalhousie. Up through Finke and as per my post the other day Chambers Pillar and Rainbow Valley before we get to Alice.
And thats only the beginning. Heading North then over the top, down the West Coast, along the Bight and home through Flinders then Victoria.. Have done lots of reading and research but have made no definite plans. Have to be home March for a wedding.
Just a quick thank you to everyone on the forum who has answered my questions and also to the people who have asked the questions I wanted to ask anyway. I have found this forum and website as a whole the best reference source available. Big thank you to Michelle and David. We are travelling basically alone and the information I have gained from EO has made me more confident to attempt the things we are going to do.

Will keep you all posted as the trip progresses.

Tessa

In that case you won't be reading this until Alice.

I hope you've had fun so far. :)

We all look forward to "David/Michelle" type trip report, and full map tracing, upon your return in 9 months.

Have a ball.
