Leaving Melbourne
Melbourne farewells us with a grey rainy day - a convincing gesture for two about to embark on a glorious road trip. Our morning is taken up remembering things we have forgotten, finding or buying them, going out for breakfast and taking upsetting phone calls. My dad (Phil) has been hospitalised in Kununurra in Western Australia, disrupting my parents’ own adventure in the Kimberley region, and giving us all a bit of a scare.
At about 2pm, having shoe-horned all of our gear into the Tardis-like Corolla we are off, relieved to finally be underway on this much-anticipated adventure. We head west for Ballarat, then Ararat, then the South Australian border.
