We have now been home for a couple of weeks and are settled into our house and back at work (well Jason is anyway!) Our trip almost feels like a distant memory already! But we never want to forget the adventure that we had as a family, the places we saw and the people we met.

Funniest Moment
When the boys discovered the words "Penis" and "Vagina". Hilarious!
Sadest Moment
Leaving Zander on the side of the road in the middle of the Pilbara because we were over his tantrums!
Crankiest Moment
Setting up camp at Kununurra. Hence why we do not like that town very much!
Drunkest Moment
Our day tour at McLaren Vale drinking wines for Jason's 40th Birthday. We were drunk at the first winery! Although Jason had a few others along the way!
Happiest Moment
When the boys thanked us for taking them on this trip.
Scariest Moment
Our trip across to Tasmania on the Spirit of Tasmania and watching Jason climb Ayres Rock and the Gloucester Tree.
Sickest Moment
When Mav and Nat threw up on the plane while flying over Kakadu. Had not discovered travel sickness tablets yet!
