This morning is the start of our road trip! We left our bags in the hostel and headed through the town to pick up our Apollo camper. The camper was a relocation one. The plan was to drive it from Alice springs to Melbourne. It's $1 per day with $100 off fuel... I was worried that something might happen driving through a desert for 3 days so we got all the insurance bringing the cost to $90 for the 3 days. We wanted to see 'the town underground' so we decided to...

Another torch in our face and it was time to get up. It was half 4 so we had half an hour to pack up, get washed and get on the bus. Back at the sunrise view point I decided it would be romantic if me n lee sat on the floor, on top of my sleeping bag.... Lee hates sitting on the floor but for the love of moi he did it whilst everyone else sat on the fence. Next minute there was a ruffle in the bushes and a pigging dingo jumped out. All I could hear in my head is ...

We were woken by Dylan shining a light in our eyes. I think it was 5am. I'd had a delightful sleep. I'd brought my silk sleeping bag so I was cool and covered... Lee didn't. He was hot and exposed. He woke all through the night hitting himself haha. He said bugs crawled on him all night. I didn't feel one? We eat our breakfast around the fire and watched the sun rise over the bush land. The colours our so beautiful. It was like we were in the jungle book! We ju...

We were up at 5. We had breakfast, stripped the beds, got a wash and was on the tour bus by 6. We headed out of Alice Springs to a camel farm. Lee said he didn't wanna be the one to break the camels back.... (Ba bum tsh) so I rode my 1st camel! It hurts! They bob u up and down. I don't know how people ride miles on them?! After a ride (and a chat to the camel asking him not to spit at me, he agreed) we saw some kangaroos and Emus then headed towards Kings Canyon....

We were up bright and early today. Everything was packed and ready so we had our breakfast whilst waiting for Clare, Dan n Harribo to get up. After a few cuddles with Harrison we jumped in the Jeep n headed for the airport. The drop off is a minute turnaround so our goodbyes had to be quick.... I walked through the airport looking like a puffer fish, holding my breath to prevent tears sneaking out. It's hard saying goodbye. Quantas, in Tullermarine, is futuristi...
