It was great swapping house sitting adventure stories. This was the 3rd time we’ve gotten together and we’ve always forgotten to take a photo. ---

@anon1411559 I laughed when I read that you’d forgotten to take pictures the other times you’d all gotten together. I do that too! In fact, I’ve done it so often that I now make a point of walking in with my phone in my hand and not putting it away until we get a group picture! 🤣 ---

Aha … so this is where all the action is. But, of course … Why, ah why am I freezing my bits and pieces off in Melbourne then??? I should have started my Australian adventure from up there 😉 ---

@anon47943759 “Queensland, beautiful one day, perfect the next.” The tourism slogan doesn’t lie. ---

Skip Sydney @anon47943759, it’s highly over rated (she says as she runs away after throwing that hand grenade) ---

Skip Sydney! Tis 100% overrated & Brissie’s much better 🙂. Rural NSW’s cool & a good road trip would be Melbs-Jindabyne-Eden-Canberra-Orange-Tamworth-Warwick-Bris. Yes, i’ve driven it 👍. Don’t forget Radelaide & Perth 🕶🕶. ---

That’s a great road trip @TheMapleKiwi to see real Australia! You might have to explain the Radelaide nickname though… ---
