Leaving The Territory

Hi Guys, just a short note letting you know that Alice and I are leaving the NT tomorrow morning.

We are heading toward Cape York and hope to standing on top of Australia in a month or so.

From there we will be heading through QLD and NSW toward Vic for the Christmas period and see what happens after that.

Probably will be off line for a while, but will keep in contact when possible.

Leon and Alice

Hi Leon,

On the gravel just be sure to slow down for the bloke coming back the other way. It might be me!
Will be driving there in a couple of weeks time.

No Worries Gary, but we will not be able to take our rig after Cooktown it really is not designed for the rough dirt roads, so mate you will be safe from us anyway.

We intend to either go on a tour from Cairns, or hire something ourselves and do the trip up to the top.

It has been a few days, but we can actually get a bit of service, hence a short hello from Alice and myself.

We are 60 k's East of Mt Isa, in a fee camp as usual, and reception out here is better than in Isa it self.

At Cloncurry we will head North to Normanton, than East to Cairns, then North again to the Top, should be fun.

Will message again soon,

Leon and Alice
