Australia Wrap Up


Our time in Australia is up on January 31, 2013.  We will be leaving Australia, many wonderful memories, new friends, old friends, our camper van A Waltzing Matilda and our beloved Sailing Vessel Worrall Wind with new owners.

A chapter in our cruising and exploration of South Pacific is coming to a conclusion.  However it is also the beginning of new dreams and adventures for the 2 Sail R's - Worrall Travel R's.

New Adventures Ahead

Our first destination when we leave via 747, is Kuala Lumpur in Indonesia, then we are off to South East Asia (Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam, Nepal, India, and Bhutan).  We are packing our backpacks, shipping stuff home, finalizing our visas, and getting ready to travel the rest of the world on other people's boats, planes, trains, buses, bikes, camels, and rickshaws.  We saw almost everything we wanted to here in Australia (we will have to come back to see Perth and Western Australia) so are now looking forward to exploring new territory and eastern cultures.

The next two weeks will be busy and hectic as we make preparations and say our goodbyes.

Here is a wrap-up of our time in Sydney, Melbourne, and back in Brisbane:
