Well, guess what.<\/p>\n

We have sold our home in Ballina and are now heading to Tasmania. We were about to board the plane to head back to Perth and pick up our car and caravan and start heading north. That will wait, as on the day we were leaving, we sold the home privately to a lovely couple from Sydney who are the Aunt and Uncle of two of our good friends.<\/p>\n

We still flew over and picked up the van and took 6 days to arrive at the ship to take us to Tassie. We had very long days of about 10 hours of driving each day, always camping at amazing spots on the side of the road. We really enjoyed it, especially with the anticipation of finally been able to pick a new home in one of our many favourite spots in Tassie.<\/p>\n
