    Hi everyone! So we've been on the road for 5 days now, heading east ( aka home!!).
    Have had pretty much no reception so not sure if this will come through before we get home - it's Friday evening now.
    So we crossed the Nullarbor AGAIN, have driven across S.A and are currently situated in outback NSW. There's goats, emu's, roo's, wedge tail eagles and seagulls of the outback ( crows ) everywhere. I've never seen so much roadkill, it just stinks as your driving along of rotting emu and Roos - I had hold of a plastic bag and was dry reaching all day - yuuuuk.
    We stopped at Broken Hill today and had good ol Macca's for lunch. The kids deserve it, they are being so good and we've been driving around 700kms a day! We've been sleeping at rest stops and usually there's at least 1 other van there so we've felt ok about stopping there.
    It's pretty hot right now and it's almost dark, someone said tomorrow will be 37 somewhere out here - we're hoping to be home either tomorrow night or Sunday.
    I picked up a cold from Alby which sucks but everyone else has had it so it was going to happen! First time in 5 months that we've been sick, since starting preschool that's a record!
    Can't wait to see everyone and hopefully weasel my way into cuddles from my nieces and nephews!
    No photos as I've let the boys take up all the storage taking pics of each other....
