The end of this story...some final photos and words



Adam playing guitar in a lovely setting at Lake St Clair, Tassie















Me, cycling through the rainforest to Tasmania's highest waterfall






And finally...


This photo seems fitting for the final chapter of our Aussie Wanderings blog...us at Dad's place on the afternoon we arrived back in Port Macquarie...we were greeted by a welcome sign and balloons...

And now for a final update:


We have been busy since returning home, searching for a place to buy and settling back in to life in Port Macquarie, catching up with friends etc. A time of endings and beginnings as we transition into the next phase of our life together.



We have thought of a few more random trip stats (it is, after all, a time for reflection):

Longest drive in one day, towing the caravan: 950 kms, while crossing the Nullarbor

Favourite Cities: Lovely Hobart, then Darwin and Perth

Favourite small touristy town: Handorf- little German town just outside Adelaide

Best windsurf for Adam: Exmouth (graveyards), WA

Best windsurf for Emma : Safety Bay, south of Perth

Best surf for Adam: Angourie, NSW

Best Surf for Emma: Red Bluff, WA

Best hike for Emma : Cradle Mountain summit, Tassie

Best hike for Adam : Mt Eliza, south west national park, Tassie

Best dinner out: on the harbour, Darwin

We had a wonderful time travelling around our great country and it's been great to be able to record our adventures and experiences here, to share them with others and also have them as a permanent record of our trip. Thanks to all of you who logged on and read our blog and left comments for us along the way...it was always a pleasure to read a comment!

We spent so long planning for our trip and saving for it, it's still hard to believe it's now behind us! But there are many future trips still to be enjoyed. :-)

Till our next wanderings...

Love and hugs and happy travels!

Emma & Adam xx
