Merry Christmas from downunder.

Merry Christmas to everyone on the forum.

I hav'nt been on here for a while as i am travelling with my missus on a two year trip around OZ.

We packed up and left Melbourne in April and are at presently in a town called Albany on the South West coast of Western Australia.

Its an old town steeped in whaling history and was the gathering and deployment place of the first ANZACS and of the first ANZAC Service after the first world war.

Strange as it may seem there is a body of water here,between the main land and an island about 5 to 600 metres wide called Ataturk Straight.

Named after the enemy (Turks) the Australians fought against.

We have seen so much since leaving and have so far travelled 12972 kms so far and are still at the bottom of OZ.

Will be here for Christmas and New Year and then head off North in January towards Darwin.

I hope the temps are a little lower by the time we get there,at present in the top end, temps are as high as 48c and very humid.

Any how i hope everybody here, your family and friends have a safe and wonderful CHRISTMAS!!!!

LIFE IS GOOD!
