Dear Ness and the boys,

I'm telling Mum you were "That" close to the crocodile as she has not got a computer and would not see it. I didn't realise it from the sixth week photos but read your blog.

Anyway, good to see you are still shaving although Craig isn't Ness. Give my love to the boys. The photos look great and I will show Mitch, Sami, Janelle and Melaine tomorrow when Home.

Adele's christening is on this weekend. I think Sharee sent you guys an invite. I will let you know how it went.

All good in Canberra. Not much rain at home and things struggling. A green drought is here again I think. Hopefully rain coming. Take care and stay away from the crocodiles.

Love
ME

Hi Wheelies

Just had to say that is a great shot at cable beach with the camels. You've inspired me to dig the camera out. We are surrounded by desert here and never take shots anymore. Anyway...

Hey I was thinking Craigy, you had a beard when I met you (and you were hitting on me in Barry Abelsons drawing lecture) Its all coming back, I like the beard I think its a keeper How long to go anyway?

hi Whelans,

Looks like you're having a great time. Noticed you did the Ranger Uranium Mine tour . Really wanted to do it but missed out. Flew over it instead. Calculated you were at Jim Jim Fall a week to the day I visited them. Were they still flowing as the guide predicted they would stop flowing three days after we visted it.

Jill and I kept on imaging we saw you all. Along the road and in camping areas one of us would say...that looks like Vanessa etc or is that Craig!..............but it never was.

Everything is going fine here . We've been forewarned we're having a fire drill in half an hour. It's going to be great learning, everyone has decided to leave before it (3.45) so the building will be empty!

Great photos

Best wishes, enjoy your travels.

Just having a look at your photos. Amazing photos and stories you will have for years to come. i am not sure any of you will come back you all look so relaxed.

Canberra very cold on the weekend and even snowed - very lovely but very cold.

Looks like you guys are getting a tan or is that dirt. The car certainly looks authentic with the several layers or dirt.

Keep having a wow of a time and dont miss here as it not going anywhere fast.

Hi Guys,

Finally logged onto your blog and thanks so much, although I was actually supposed to be working, I got a little carried away and spend over an hour looking at your fabulous photos - not sure about the croc Ness. and reading about your adventures.

Sounds like you are having a great time, seeing some great country and enjoying being the fab family you are. Keep it up.

The Beard.......perhaps the BEAR. hope the boys are having fun, they both look well, can you start Jamies 120hours on L plates now?

Be safe, be happy. thinking of you

Steve, Bron and girls

Hey - didn't recognise you in the beard - bit worried it will join up with the back hair???

Seriously the photos are stunning, the trip sounds fantastic and a far cry from the on and off snow all day here in Nth Canberra. Keep emjoying and updating so the rest of us can escape vicariously.

Hot dude! [From: Shirley]

The car has been washed!!!!!! Not sure about the Tambo home.

The majority are freezing whilst the hard working one is enjoying some tranquility and serenity.

Hoping you are not letting the world and your fellow travellers down and that you still continue to smell and have sweaty arm pits!!!

RTW is not nice and school has some advantages like friends, disadvantages like study and timetable.
