Day 515 Home Again

We arrived home almost 17 months since we left....we had had the best time ever, we have no knowledge as to how we are going to settle back into the cottage or even the life in one place. Here is a picture of my Garden Gnome sitting on the top of Toby with Turtle in the background...all outside our cottage. Is this a strange feeling or what... I can remember asking Stephen before we started about how we would feel about leaving on this trip....now I know that feeling..but this one of coming home I am not so sure of. Are we happy to be home...yes and no, are we going away again...maybe...do we want to go back to ...k ( four letter word ending K that is very rude in this home!) We will see in the future!
To all our friends, family and fellow travel companions ( both new and old)...thank you for all your comments, company and thoughts (especially in Darwin) on our travels. The map above shows our way and our circuit (double click to blow it up)..it doesn't show the heartfelt joy and pleasure that we have experienced on this adventure of a life time. To anyone who thinks that this is something they should do....just do it!

We will shut this blog for now, but watch this space, you never know we may just go away again... where to, who knows. One thing we do know is that we have only scratched the surface of this Great Country in 17 months..so there is a lot for us still to do.

Hugs to all............ Alison & Stephen

FINI !
