Excitement is in the air!!

The Lindsay household is getting very excited about our next big trip drawing close.
The start date is the 29th April 2011, and last minute planning is in full swing. It all started at the end of our last trip (more than 6 years ago) when we made the decision we were going again!
Over the years the kids have complained about telling them so early and making the wait so long.  Now the count-down calender is on their wall, and the parents are slightly stressed about the long To-do list on ours. We are all looking forward to once again experiencing what this country has to offer. The adventures and challenges, spectacular scenery and nature, and meeting lots of interesting characters along the way.  But most of all we know from experience that best thing about the trip will be the time spent together as a family.
