The Concept

Simple Concept: Travel around Oz

The Problems:
- Two Toddlers: Emily - 3.5 and Lachlan - just 2;
- Work: GFC Take 2, perhaps not the best time to travel?
- Mortgage: Must be paid
- Summer: It could be a hot one!

The Solutions:
- Two Toddlers: Still working on this one
- Work: Career Break, yay, so Nick off for 9 months
- Mortgage: House rented
- Weather: Follow the Sun, but do not roast, looking very grey to date.

The Trusty Steed:
- Our Kluger car and the newly purchased Customline Camper Trailer

Timing:
- Plan to leave Sydney 2nd/3rd January 2012 for 6 months

Route:
- West to Adelaide, via Dubbo, Broken Hill, lots of small towns, deserted roads, blue sky, red dirt and hopefully some wine country to arrive in Adelaide for the Tour Down Under 2012. From there if the weather is cold we will head north, if hot we head south. Simple.

Along the way we hope to take lots of happy snaps to remind us and particularly the kids of their journey, and will record the tales of tots as we go.

They are currently flying high at the idea, well Em is at least, Lachie still doesn't quite "get it". The best part for Em is that she has finished school, and unfortunately for her she doesn't realise she has a long way to go.
