Hello!!! So Pip has arrived, yey!! Thankyou Shane for letting me borrow your truck to pick her up monday morning - think it made quite an impression. We had a very chilled out day on monday - visited Theresa and got free drinks and turkish delight at the cafe - and started to plan our route....route was eventually finalised on tuesday and this is it; brissi - noosa - rainbow beach - fraser - airlie - whitsunday (3 day sail) - cairns - alice springs - ayres rock etc - adelaide (with Barossa wine tour i might add he he!!) - brissi - singapore!! sound good?!?!? thankyou once more to shane who gave us a great send off at the restaurant on tuesday night with salt and pepper calamari, pizzas, chicken, waffles and ice cream! although i am pleased to be on the move again it is a little sad to leave brissi as i have met so many lovely people and it has effectively become home for the past 2 months. we left brissi yesterday and are now in Noosa. went for a walk around the Noosa National Park - think Pip was pleased to get some sand between her toes! We leave for rainbow Beach midday today and then we head to fraser Island tomorrow. Desperately hoping it'll stop raining before we get to Fraser!! So all in all things are good. i am finally on the move again and have my best mate beside me - what more could a girl ask for? p.s David and Lynn please don't worry I am taking very good care of Pip - keeping her supplied with copious amounts of wine and chocolate at all times he he xx Hope all is well, take care and keep in touch xx
