Happy New Year, welcome to 2017 which will sadly be our last year of doing the Big Lap Around Australia. There are various reasons, we only planned to be away four years; travelling funds are starting to dwindle and (most importantly) Oma really misses the grandkids.
Christmas is gone for another year. 2016 is almost over with the new year rocketing towards us. This will be our last entry for The Big Lap, Year 3. But wait! all is not over as we have one more year (or there abouts) of travelling in 2017.
Over the number of times we have been to Sydney Anne had always wanted to visit Cockatoo Island in Sydney Harbour as this was where her Opa use to work. This trip we decided to make time and pay a visit.
The past month has been busy. At the end on November we flew back home as Number 4 son was getting married and there was no way on earth his mum would be missing this event.
