Australia here we come!!!!! 17th February 2010

Our first day on the road, the 17th of February 2010 the beginning of our new venture, it has been a crazy month, organising storage for our furniture, and cleaning up all the house, getting the van modified to suit our needs, and selling some furniture we no longer needed, it was full on, our settlement was on the 15th of February and then we stayed at Bolivar Caravan Park for 2 nights which was very nice we were very surprised, we had to finalise a few things and say goodbye to everyone, so today it was so exciting to finaly hit the road. Our first night was at Dadswell Bridge Victoria at the big Koala, it was a beautiful day we played eye spy with the kids and did the times tables along the way with Hayden and we stopped at Keith and the kids had a play on the ride at Keith while Dave and I had a coffee and then I saw a big Huntsmen Spider near my bed (I am a big whoos when it comes to spiders)  Dave had to spray the whole van until the spider finally died, then I felt so much better, so off we went again and ended up at Dadswell Bridge for the night Dave and I had a champagne to celebrate the beginning of our new journey.
