G'day there. Gettin warmer old mates! She'll be right, just don't drink too many cold cans out in the sun. Cups of hot water or tea help you stay cool, fair dinkum. Stops ya sweatin any how. Gatoraid won't hurt ya either. I wish we had your problem with the heat down in NSW but we're about 6 months away for that. You might hit the good old 45 degree days if your lucky ;) . Good news about booking a camping spot. You lot might wana invest in a portable a/c unit, just for back up. They're a bloody life saver! We're glad your having a cracker of a time and enjoying all the local tucker. It won't be long now before you both start speaking with a you beaut Aussie accent........crikey! Wishing you all the best in the great outdoors xxxxx

Sorry Diane that was Chris's words I try to censor him but it doesn't work. Hope your exam went well!!!

'nice week at work' ?? I'm starting to go off you! It's cold and looks like snow - so jealous of you both. Love Diane

The blog is great so keep it coming, envy you the heat when it's only 8 degrees here and snow forecast for tonight !!!! Only two weeks and we'll be in Queensland so will get a little bit warmer there, hope to talk soon, love chris and Richard

Hi Chris and Steph

Great to read your blog and look at the photos. I imagine the desert is amazing. I spent 3 days in Dunedin last week - 2 on business an stayed until Saturday so a nice opportunity for a catch up. Was funny with you two not being there. We're all good here. Look forward to reading more as you go. The north will be amazing I'm sure.

cheers
Ross and Megan

Hi, glad alls going well, you both look great. The photos are fab! Diane

Hi Guys.. looks like fun!!! b***** - hey double glazing stage 1 bedrooms in - looking good and warm! :-) miss ya heaps.. take care - lynnie

b***** I got my time frames back to front and can't edit it lol. It must be a sign that I need another holiday!

Hi guys! Wow you're getting close to the middle of Oz. I bet the night sky looks amazing, in total darkness. The opal mines would be great to see. Feel free to send as many opal gifts as you like lol. Steph have you been visited by any big spiders, scorpions or snakes yet? Dad I hope you don't fall asleep at the wheel listening to Neil Diamond on auto repeat! It's funny I'm used to you guys being 2 hours behind the times but now you're half a hour ahead. 20 degrees sounds cold for the desert, but you'll probably hit the 30's soon. A nice warm place to be now that it's Winter already. We're freezing in Sydney, with 12 degree early morning temps! ;) I really enjoy reading your blog and I'm sure if it was on fb, it would be going viral. Take care guys and lots of love from us all xxxx
P.s if a Neil Diamond CD wears out (which it will), give me a shout and I'll have my courier race a new one out to you over night :)

Hi there Dreamtimers, great to read about your travels, we are very envious !! You won't want to return to our hum drum life here of about 10 deg. Keep on enjoying those C D's & just sing along. Cheers.

Gosh is it a year since you guys went just goes to show how time flies. You guys behave yourselves with all you are getting up to and don't forget to have one for us occasionally. Miss you all. XXX

Hi Dreamtimers, you guys are really getting around now! Foolish days and nights here as you can well imagine, and Queebs Birthday upon us, just reminiscing bout last years trip to Raro
