Our Adventure Begins....

 We woke early to a cold morning in Canberra, it was such a great feeling to finally squeeze that last box in the shed and do a final check of our empty, clean home before we left it all behind for 6 months. It has been such a massive last three days for Darrin and I sorting, cleaning and organising everything. Emma and Kate have had a wonderful time staying at Grandma and Grandpa’s, I have to say a huge thank you to my mum and dad for their support and having the girls for the three days.
Thank you also to all our friends and family who have cooked us meals and helped us with our preparations, we very much value your friendship and thoughts, and I am sure you have all kept us sane.
After a crazy morning we eventually left Canberra around midday, our first stop was to spend time with family on the central coast.
Kate really does not have the concept of "travelling around australia" or just how big this country is: We were 30 minutes out of Canberra when Kate said “travelling around Australia is boring, we haven’t seen anything yet”. What a surprise Kate is in for over the next six months.
We are going to miss our family and friends, but we look forward to everyday and the adventures that each day will bring.
