Getting Started

Well John & I are off on our first real holiday since 1999 and our first real holiday on our own since 1982. We are hoping to make this travel business a habit so I have set up this blog spot so we can keep family and friends up to date with our travel adventures.

On Sunday 30th November we head off to Perth and the South-West of Western Australia for three weeks to help celebrate Helen's 50th. Helen & I travelled around Australia with Jo in 1979 and she was responsible for John and I getting together so we could not possibly pass up the opportunity to help her celebrate her special event. It is not every day that one turns half a century and such a momentus occasion is worthy of celebration.

We arrive in Perth on Sunday afternoon and as soon as I can I will update you all with what we have been up to. Probably when we get to Helen's the following Friday.
