Back in Oz....briefly

We're back in Australia for a brief visit before we fly off again.


We had pleasant flight from Wellington to Sydney for a one night stay at the Airport Hotel before we flew to Maroochydore to pick up our new Landcruiser and check up on the progress of our caravan.

We had a few days on the Sunshine Coast getting a few things added to the new car and then drove back to Sydney for a couple of days.  Then it was on to Canberra for a few more days and before we know it we're back at the Airport Hotel preparing for our next trip.


Tomorrow morning we're on the 6am flight to Rome.  We will be away until mid July.  Our plans are to spend 2 months in Umbria in central Italy, then a week in Germany with some friends and then we'll make our way back to Rome to fly home to Australia.


PS The new car is GREAT. Easy to drive and a view like you get from a small bus.  It's BIG!! - but we know we'll need all of its power to pull our caravan when it's completed.


WiFi permitting our next post will be from (hopefully) sunny Italy.
