Great Towns Like the themed towns you have come across. Send me photos of any thing like that that I can use to show other towns. Just letting you know Ron, Mavis's husband passed away suddenly yesterday in his sleep. Know nothing more then that at this stage. David

Peter and Suzanne's visit Thanks Manza,
We really enjoyed our stay with you and Keith and meeting your lovely daughter Roya. Not sure when we will be back in Kyabram but we will certainly keep in touch.
Greetings from Edinburgh Hi Suzanne & Pete, well we are back in Edinburgh and all now seems a dreamtime ago that we were with you guys at Flametree and Derwent Hunter, what a fantastic time we had and by reading your blog is so good to hear of your adventures, awesome. We ended up at Magnetic Island, then to Cairns and Karunda, stayed at Lake Placid campsite and then enjoyed amazing snorkelling on Great Barrier Reef before short stay in Singapore. It was lovely to meet you and wish you hugs and happiness with your travels and with so many amazing experiences...... cheers to you both!

Towoomba Hope Peter is feeling better. Sounds like a great trip so far .Tell him G is on shutdown and not liking the hours !! Have not had computer for 3 weeks so have just logged on to tou again.Fancy getting a free campsite very tinny !!

You are welcome in the Burdekin! Hi Peter and Suzanne. I love your holiday snaps. If you'd like a photo of a huge snake, make sure you stop at Plantation Park in Ayr. You can sit on this one for a photo and he won't bite. Stop in at the Tourist Information Centre at Home Hill or Ayr to get a brochure. Also, there is free overnight camping in the town centre of Home Hill, with a free ammenities block.
Home Hill tip Thanks for the tip Wendy. All suggestions and advice from fellow travellors always welcome. Still green horns at this stage but learning fast. ie. do not leave empty glasses on bench whilst driving!
Mackay Hi Suzanne you are certainly having a wonderful time and your journey has just started, poor Pete obviously he is not of royal blood with all the bites he is getting (haha). I can see you running for your life after the snake incident, that is one thing that I think I would be afraid off after mice and rats ugh!!. Keep up the blogging I am enjoying every read. Cheers Lynley
Hi Suzanne
Well you are certainly getting around, my son once got attack by a magpie on the Gold Coast and we were then told if we wear a hat and/or sunnies they normally don't attack. Poor boy had just taken his hat off. What viscious birds they are. Never been to Fraser Is but have been told it is a must to see. We are having cold winds at the moment that go right into your bones and frosts for the past few mornings and thought of you in the warm climate. Well I learnt something today did not know the writer of Mary Poppins was an Australian, good photo. Until next time Lynley
Towoomba Hi Suzanne - Sorry to hear Pete not well, hope he is now feeling a lot better. When I was in England some 30 odd years ago, I worked with a girl who came from Towoomba, it must have grown some as she described it as a place at the back of beyond, or maybe she was just referring to it against the size of London. She said when she first arrived in the UK she was a country bumpkin but she soon did adapt to the way of life in London, am sorry have lost contact with her now. Obviously to get a free campsite you have to arrive early. Cheer Lynley
Signwriting Hi Suzanne
I do like the signwriting, not long to go now and you will be off on your big adventure, am so looking forward to reading about your trip.
Sunny here today - yeah
cheers

4 August, 2012 - Peter and Suzanne, being of the Baby Boomers generation, are now setting forth on the next travel phase of our lives. We met many years ago in Cape Town, South Africa, Suzanne from Oldham in England and Peter from Cambridge in New Zealand, on an overland expedition taking six months to get to London. A year later we then journeyed from London to Australia overland taking 10 months. We settled in Rotorua, New Zealand, had 3 great kids who are now doing their own thing and it is now, excitingly, time for us to recommence where we left off. We have, with much trepidation on my... full info
