Beginnings....

The Plan


We are planning our first long service leave trip for this year and have decided to document our travels using this blog.  Our 9 week trip will begin on the 27th of June 2015, which coincides with Ebony's 2nd birthday.  This trip has been planned and re-planned over about 4 years.  We are still not sure if we have it right, but we are also flexible enough to go with the flow and see what happens once we get out there.

Attached are copies of our proposed itinerary and maps.
