Well, there you have it. Eight days in just one viewing. Ingrid went home with happy memories, a thousand photos and perhaps a need to come back here one day to see the rest. Although her map is covered with black lines of roads covered, there are many more we didn't have time for.
Ray and I have spent a few days in New Norfolk for rest and recuperation (and a jolly good clean of the motorhome both inside and out), and are now sitting at St Helens waiting for cousins Iris and John to arrive in their rented motorhome when we'll head out to the Bay of Fires for a day or two. They have no refrigeration, so we have chilled champagne on hand, and all the makings of a delicious (vegetarian) dinner tomorrow night.
That's all for now - will try and update again before the week is out.
Some lovely photos there. Looks like everyone had a great time. Hope you've stowed the wombat until I get there!!
