Week Thirteen Day Eighty Eight

Well this is the end, the end of our travels around Australia. Thank you for following our ups and downs around a beautiful part of the world. We covered over 15000 kilometres, spent a lot of money on petrol, travel and accommodation, but no price can be put on the memories we have of these last three months.

We did not end up murdering each other (living in such close confines). But grew closer and more understanding of one another. We spent a wonderful three months watching our daughter enthralled by the experiences she was exposed to. We learnt that we could live with minimum of possessions for three months and survive. We learnt that the world won't come to end if we wore unironed clothes (except for those looking at us in Bondi Junction).

There are places that we will, one day hope to, go back to and experience once again. Ormeau, where we lived for almost two years. Cape Arnhem the most beautiful, unspoilt part of the Northern territory. Coral Bay for the snorkeling experience on Ningaloo reef. Monkey Mia for the sea life and dolphins, and of course who could discount Coober Pedy the most eccentric and unique place we have ever encountered.

Thank you Australia for the beautiful memories and for providing us the opportunity to challenge our boundaries.

Hope's Blog......... Thank you for everyone that visited us on this trip and for all the nice friends we made. My best memory of the holiday is when I fed the dolphins at Monkey Mia W.A.
