3 things

I seem to be worried about

1. Leaving the business. What if we lose everything we have worked so hard for?

2. Leaving the house. What if the tenants ruin it? What if all the plants die?

3. Going backwards financially. Are we crazy?

I want to record these worries, so I can look back and think 'what was I worried about?, This is the best thing we have ever done. Look at my little family!'

health

Whenever I am worried about our children's health. I put all my thoughts into our trip. For they are the reason we are going. They are the reason we are making changes to the way we view and live, life.

grateful

Today I am grateful.

Grateful and happy. Grateful for my husband and my children. And their health. And how happy I am that I have my little family. Westmead always seems to put things in perspective for me. Reminding me why we are off on this adventure.

around

At this stage we are planning to leave the South Coast of NSW April 2013.
We are going to head north (chasing the warm weather).

North coast NSW. Coast of QLD. Either all the way to the top or start cutting across to NT from around Cairns. Into Darwin, Katherine, etc. Coast of WA. Broome. Down west coast to Perth. Margaret River. Hug the coast to SA. Adelaide. Great Ocean Road to Melbourne. Home.

If we have time we will do some of the South Coast of NSW, but if not then there is a holiday for another time, close to home.

I really want to concentrate our time on Nth QLD, NT and WA. These destinations are far away from home, and not something we can do in a short holiday.
We are going to have some type of timeline, otherwise we'll take 6mths to get to Brisbane! A balance of planning and being unplanned. How do you find this balance?
I think we'll break up the areas. Nick is excited about the north coast of NSW and QLD. I want to spend all our time in NT, WA and Great Ocean Road. If we each research some areas - we'll know where to go, what to see and where to stay.

LOVE. Lorne. Broome. Monkey Mia. Darwin.
