Welcome

Welcome to Derek and Karen's travel blog. We hope you will enjoy following our journey around Australia the slow way. We will try to keep our blog entertaining for you with our photography and highlights and the occasional lowlights (hopefully not too many of those). We have a couple of adds on the right that you are more than welcome to click on to view, that will help us along the way. The add about the Amazon Kindle is about our favourite choice of ebook that we read for at least 2 hours every day. We have a Kindle each and down load all sorts of books to read on them. So we hope you enjoy our blogs.

The cold has started

Well what a wake-up. One hour before the alarm is due to go off, I got up for my morning little walk to our smallest room in our bus and found the floor was as cold as ice. So on went the electric ceramic heater down the front end, and on my way back to bed, on went the diesel heater that is located under our bed and blows toasty warm air out down the hallway and into the bathroom if I leave that door open. This I do for 15 minutes to warm the room before shower time. The TV went on after an hour of back into our lovely warm bed to wait til the bus warmed up, and the news reported that we had a -2c morning. BBRRRR now I know what cold is after the past few years of mostly summer weather with the odd cool day. Cool day ha! They weren't cool, the last two weeks were cool. So, no photo to show you due to me whoosing out and not wanting to step out of the warm bus into the freezing cold air outside to take a shot of the beautiful mist on the river. If we didn't have the fixed fly screens on our windows, I would have took the shot from Derek's side of the bed through his window. The river is wider and more misty on his side of the bus. My side is narrow and has the little rapids and bridge. Lovely.
