Hard to believe, but finally it's our turn to do a (partial) lap of Australia. We plan to leave in early March 2016 heading west from Melbourne along the Victorian coast to the South Australian Coast. First up, we will spend some time exploring the Yorke and Ayre Peninsulas before crossing the Nullarbor and exploring the south west corner of WA. After that, we'll see...plenty to see and do, lots to explore and visit, and plenty of time (we hope) to read, walk, swim, take photos and enjoy many sunsets (and the occasional glass of wine!). Serious planning so far has meant we've cleaned out the van, bought communication equipment (including a personal beacon locater and UHF radio) and made sure we have plenty of movies and TV series on the hard drive. It will be hard to leave the kids and family behind, but adventure awaits.
