On the Road

We started our road trip! We are 5 days in to our 2 month road trip up the East Coast of Australia. This is just to let you all know that we are doing fine. We moved out of our apartment and drove out of the city a few hours last Sunday. Since then we have stayed two nights in the Yarra Valley where we visited some wineries and got the van organized. Then we spent two nights in Wilson's Promitory National Park in the very South of Australia not too far from Melbourne. It was beautiful! We did a hike yeseterday and watched the sunset. Right now we are stopped in a small town called Sale at the local library. We have a couple of things to take care of (internet cancellation and apartment stuff) while we are here, then back on the road. At this point we don't really have any plans, just to make it all the way up to Cairns by April 20 and to enjoy the ride. We've seen wombats, kangaroos, an echidna and lots of crazy insects. Our van is sweet as. It took us a good couple of hours to take everything out and get situated. We are using every inch of storage space available.

I'll update more about all the cool things we are doing and seeing when I can use my own computer to upload blogs. I'm just typing on the library's computer now.

Love you!
