Our new home!


Well for a little while anyway ;)  

It’s amazing how quickly a place can feel like home.  After spending a few nights in the same rest area back in Carnarvon our little patch of gravel became our home.   Giving JR time to recover from his illness, the park in Exmouth became our regular afternoon hangout before we headed ‘home’ to our rest area just off the highway each night.  And now, having travelled the 3000 or so kms required for us to cross the border and arrive in Darwin, we have made it to the city we will call home for the next 4 months or so.

...on our way across the top were breathtaking.
The stormy skies...
We did make one stop over on our way to Darwin and that was to enjoy Broome for a day.  The highlight for sure was watching the sunset on Cable Beach on camel back!  I think it was probably my first ever camel ride and it sure was the place to enjoy it. 


We're on the 4th camel from the back...you can't miss us!
Since arriving in Darwin, we have spent the last week at Rachel and Adrian’s place as we settle in.  It’s been so nice to spend time with family again!  The days of the rare shower and no access to movies, TV, couches and a kitchen feel like a world away.

We both started work this week and are looking forward to all that this Darwin experience will bring.  Will keep you posted.

Love R.

This is us up a bit closer!
