Just some writing to start this new adventure but, I am sure, the pictures will follow!!!

We took the big leap this week and booked and paid for (ouch) our flights this week. We'll be flying with Air Canada (they should know the way) to Toronto and will arrive on April the 12th. Then after a week in and around Toronto and Gravenhurst we will be heading off to trace the Mississippi from its source at Lake Itasca, Minnesota down along the river to the delta in Lousiana.

After arriving in New Orleans the plan is to then head east to Florida and then north through Atlanta and then follow the Appalachian and Adirondack Mountains to Canada. Sounds simple doesn't it? Now the real planning can start!!!





In the meantime we have been busy brushing up on and relearning our Aussie language and actions..... oh and tidying and getting used being Narooma residents again and of course we needed to buy a UTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!







And of course there is always a chance to go for a swim at the shark net or spend a bit of time at the beach or interact with some furry friends at Bendalong.





I'm writing this on Australia Day which is a day to go to the Surf Club for breakfast, a day to ride your bike to the Narooma Australia Day Ceremony at Ken Rose Park, a day to clean the barbie, a day to go for a swim and a day to generally do a few things around 6 Perkins before Julie starts school. Then to finish the day on a quieter note we finished by barbequing a piece of the national symbol for tea/ supper/dinner and enjoying a glass or two of Tacu Sauvignon Blanc while watching the tennis. 
















Isn't life good!!!!!!!!!!!!
