Wed I finally met with Jon who had posted an ad on gumtree (like kijiji or craigslist) to travel around Australia..... we met up wed and had a great chat about where to go, when to go... what to do along the way etc... He is very easy going and chill and we both are flexible with where we go and we just want to enjoy the trip, not rush to anything!
So I decided we should leave friday (yes today) so that I could work my week shifts and say goodbye, for now, to Cvd!
Worked my fairy job wed and thurs. Went out last night with Carolyn and Jon to have dinner and drinks and enjoy my last night in Sydney for now. We ate down at Darling Harbour and enjoyed sitting by the water and seeing the lights reflect off the water.I had a wonderful milk hot chocolate from the LINDT store down there.... yummy!
Came home to clean up and pack my stuff.... well get it ready to pack!Today I am packing my bags and packing up the Troopy (truck) and we will head south! Melbourbe might be a bit chilly, its autumn now and the nights are cooler...but we will be fine, its not COLD out :P
We are hanging out in Melbourne then we will drive to Adelaide and somewhere along the way I will learn to drive on the other side of the road, and the Troopy is 5 speed... so it will be GREAT!From Adelaide we will drive straight north to the middle of Aus, which is Ayers rock and then camp there a bit, then drive all the way north to Darwin.
We have no time limit or set times to travel.. so depends what we want to see and so along the way we'll be in the north in a few weeks or months... time will tell!
I want to see the 12 Apostles (rock formation) Ayers Rock, Whispering Wall, Kangaroo Island, The Olgas, Monkey Mia and Coober Pedy which is an underground village!
Hope to keep you all updated along the way.... we will have wi-fi on Jon's laptop right in the truck, but just depends how often I am on it that I will blog!
Wish us luck....... off we go...................................
