All our bags are packed

... we're ready to go!

This is it, this is what it's all been about. As I write this it's April 26th 23:10 UK time .... so I can now say that tomorrow at 14:15, we hope to be soaring above the skies in an Emirates plane heading for Dubai and then Melbourne.

Thanks so much to everyone who has helped us out over the last year or so while all the plans have started to take shape. We're now on an adventure of a lifetime and intend to enjoy every second and relish the new experiences it's going to bring.

Thanks to everyone for your good luck messages, cards, gifts, blow up crocs, surprise parties, balloons and phone calls / text messages. We'll miss you all so much.

Take care of yourselves and please keep us in touch with everything you're doing because my goodness are we going to bore you to death with what we're doing!

We expect to do the next blog from Grants place in Melbourne on Wednesday 29th ... hope you're on the edge of your seats waiting!

Love to all

Dar & Sar

Good luck and have fun...
Watch out for the giant mutant Kangaroos we've been reading about that have been kicking camper vans off the road and stealing the sausages. Trespasser went to Bennets racing - which is a good home and at least it will get campaigned the way it deserves. We'll see you at some point in the future I'm sure. Best of luck: Mike/Linda
