Hello!
Well, we're back in Sydney. The Roadtrip is another thing to tick off our list.
We had a great time & got to see and experience some cool stuff. Now its time for us to sell Shelia to some loving backpackers. She done us proud, we travelled over 7 and a half thousand Km's which works out to approx 5 and a half thousand miles which is 5 times the length of England and there where some of you who doubted Shelia! We've definately learned that Australia is massive and there is a whole lot of nothing in between towns. Im quite proud of myself that i managed the 2 months in the van, who would have thought it before we left.
We're now in Sydney for 2 weeks before we fly to Alice Springs and get to see the red rock and then its off to New Zealand which will be a complete shock to our system, Alice Springs is 42 celius at the minute and New Zealand is getting ready for its ski season! We've just had a major panic when we realised we've got no warm cloths but we now have our ski wear ready (thanks mum!)
On our road trip some of the highlights were swimming with a turtle in the great barrier reef, seeing a wild salt croc, got to lay on the whitest beach in the world but we also went without showers & lovely western toilets.
Since we've been back in Sydney, our home away from home. We've done lots of drinking and catching up with the Ausie friends. We did watch the Royal wedding, there was no escaping it here either! Made us feel very British & slightly home sick - Its 8 months today since we left sunny England.
We'll update the blog once we get back from Alice Springs.
Love to everyone at home
