Mike and Trish
Hi, we are Mike and Trish and about to start the next phase of our lives. Over thirty years ago we travelled from London to Kathmandu which instilled in us a love of travel. We live in Australia and since our initial adventure have done the "family thing". During this period we have maintained our travel bug by regular trips OS but mostly by 4WDing and camping trips throughout this great country. Now it is time to do the big lap, "The Wrong Way Around." We have sold up in Kyneton, Victoria and put into storage what we wish to keep to furnish our next 'base' and the plan is to travel for at least 12 months around Australia.
We have a Nissan Patrol, "The Troll", which has been optioned up to ensure our comfort, safety, and so we have the capability to go wherever we want to. We will be towing a Trakmaster Kimberley Offroad Van, "The Trackie". Our travelling companion is Mrs Jackie Russell, "Jackie", our beloved Jack Russell.
Our trip is called "The Wrong Way Around" because we will be travelling East to West and then North.
Our journey starts on October 2nd, the day after the 2011 AFL Grand Final, hopefully after seeing the Geelong Cats Win...postscript..The Cats won the 2011 AFL Grand Final beating Collingwood (how sweet it is), 3 out of 5 ain't bad !! Go Cats
