Love it when a new (to me) blog captivates me like that. It looks like your travels took you right near our place (Denmark/ Albany in WA). We did a bit lap around the edge pre children, taking 14 months. Dream of doing it again some day. We missed Tassie last time and it's one of my greatest regrets. <br /><br />rachel xotea with lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07189192073489440981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6004458534993714527.post-34249130231632066532012-05-06T07:18:23.355+10:002012-05-06T07:18:23.355+10:00Your home is amazing.Your home is amazing.tim coulsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17393917448100042606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6004458534993714527.post-28088592085785130062012-03-08T14:51:03.847+11:002012-03-08T14:51:03.847+11:00I've just discovered your blog and realised th...I've just discovered your blog and realised that your trip around Australia was nearly identical to one that my husband and I took a few years ago, except in reverse, and we started and finished in Melbourne. Can't wait to read some of your older posts as I'm sure we both visited some of the same amazing places. Snorkelling at Shark Bay was one of my favourite experiences, what about you? Enjoy settling back into your home. I look forward to reading some of your future blogs about the development of the farmlet as well - your chooks are gorgeous!city garden country gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10477373490943625987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6004458534993714527.post-62003840496836725062012-02-28T21:40:30.605+11:002012-02-28T21:40:30.605+11:00It's quite the shambles on the inside - I keep...It's quite the shambles on the inside - I keep moving things around and still in unpack mode but i'll get there.

I spent all day everyday looking at this map and I can't believe I didn't put a photo of it on my blog sooner. Yes, the situation with the caravan is quite funny isn't it - we had a friend come over on the weekend with their 4WD to tow it up - there is just a little steep part of the driveway towards the top that if you were to go up it with a caravan and got stuck then you would be really stuck!!Mel @ Coal Valley Viewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00773581188651200076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6004458534993714527.post-14853254997441059272012-02-28T21:30:12.855+11:002012-02-28T21:30:12.855+11:00Oh my goodness, what's this then?

I am so fascinated by your stories. I have an aunty in St Mary's (East Coast), an aunty and uncle in Deloraine, cousins in Launceston and a long running connection with Tassie as a result. It is such a beautiful part of the world.<br />That map with your traced route is fantastic. You MUST see Qld, it is an absolute gem. And I do find it rather ironic that your caravan couldn't make it up the driveway, who would have thought!? xoAll For Lovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13151973819133926868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6004458534993714527.post-87135407070962756252012-02-26T18:41:45.990+11:002012-02-26T18:41:45.990+11:00Hello
