IT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENING

On Monday 11^th April 2011 Matt and I took a deep breath as I clicked “Submit” on the online application form for our motorhome. On it were our credit card details, or should I say my parents credit card details, and an agreement to charge the full amount for the hire upfront. This moment had been the culmination of hours and hours of meticulous research and detailed discussions.

I want to record our trip overseas and what better way to start than at the very beginning, answering questions like how we were able to take four months out of our lives to travel, why we picked a motorhome and what we are planning to see and do. This is of course followed by the story of our adventure itself, filled hopefully with wonderful tales of what we discover along our way.

Part of me wants to fast-forward to that moment when our plane takes off the run way in Sydney but really our adventure has already started. So here we are, one and a half months to the wedding and three and a half months until we head overseas, and I can barely contain my excitement. There’s no going back now – it’s actually happening!
