Last Post

10th Oct. Gt Yarmouth
Yes it was the last post as far as the rugby was concerned. Disappointing result for the All Blacks but they met a team that had been hurt with their Argentine defeat and wanted to make amends.
Still, it was a good excuse to make a memorable trip, have some unforgettable experiences and meet some wonderful people. For some reason my last blog didn't get posted but for the last almost 3 weeks we have been in the UK travelling through Scotland, England and Wales enjoying good weather and visiting out of the way areas. An example were the last two days spent on Dartmoor, just outside the little village of Widecombe in the Moor at a camp site located on the edge of a stream. We spent the day visiting villages, walking on the moor and generally enjoying the last two nights we will be spending in the van.
We have decided to store it at a friend's farm for 4 months then come back in March of next year and bring it back by way of East Africa travelling down as far as Durban then shipping it across to Fremantle. It's quite doable by the sound of it though Sudan sounds a little interesting.
This will be our last post. We fly back to AU onthe 21st Oct. We fly to Paris in a couple of days where we will spend three days before hiring a car for a week in Brittany. Then come back to London to meet up with Adam before catching the flight.
It has been a great experience and I hope any of you who have followed the blog and managed to last the distance, have enjoyed it. Travel is a wonderful thing no matter the preferred manner you feel more comfortable following. A trip like ours is really quite easy, just needs a bit of planning and being able to step outside your comfort zone.
The next post will be on a new blog site early in the new year.

Gary & Joan
