I am owning up

I am owning up…..my blog is not up to date !!!!  Apart from my post about parting company with John and Deb, the last post was at  Wave Rock in Western Australia.  Since then we have been through South Australia, Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland, so I have quite a bit of catching up to do, which I intend to do over time. 

Also, the dates a post was done is not necessarily the date we where at the place I wrote about.  Here is where we have been, starting on day 1 when be left Atherton, Far North Queensland for Mt Surprise on 26 April 2014 up to and including 11 November 2014 when we arrived back in Atherton, Far North Queensland where the journey began.

We were on the road for 200 days,  165 of those days we travelled with our good friends John and Deb.  We have had an awesome time together, seeing what there is to see and making good memories.  You can see that we have moved pretty quickly in some places but Australia is a big country so sometimes there are huge distances to travel to get from one place to another.  The distances and the changes it brings is part of the enjoyment of travelling in Australia.  Some are daunted by the distances but if you look you will see changes everywhere although some are very subtle.
