G'day Elaine
So excited you can't sleep at night:-) (noticed your post was at 2.41am)
We're about to go round
the block too! How long are you guys going for?
We should be off by the 1st Oct, just waiting for the house to settle and sell all our stuff as we are not using storage, - major de-clutter this one!
We are going for 2/3 maybe 10 years or more, who knows who cares? Keep going 'till we are sick of it, or dead!
Have a great trip, see you on the road!
Cheers

Hi,so good to hear from you.
I'm not too sure for how long yet,we've not decided. I do know that we are doing 6 months in WA then heading up to the top
Darwin for the dry season.
We just bought our caravan,so now to pack the things we have to take which is not a lot.
We leave 29th October,heading for W.A
We're not selling up however I do have a lot of organising to do as we're renting our house out .
Where are you going first?
We will be working in
places as we are both nurses,hence the post I was on night shift that night.
Good to hear from you once again.

Same with us Caz, we had the best time too in 2008.. People use kids so often as an excuse not to travel, we will be taking our little girl with us now that we have one, next time we do the big one. They learn so so much.
cheers Unc & Jodie
