Monday, May 28, 2012. 2012 Planning another trip. On the 12th June we take off for Europe again. First of all we will make a trip into Morocco for a planned two week tour. I'm looking forward to the camel trek into the Sahara for an overnight stay in the desert. Clare and Murray will leave us here and continue on their way around Europe. A few weeks back in St.George near Lyon for some RnR before we fly home via Belgium to visit my niece Nicky, Philip and little Jack before we make the long trip home.

Whittam World Wanderings: Homeward bound
http://whittamworldwanderings.blogspot.com/2011/08/homeward-bound.html
Tuesday, August 30, 2011. Continuing south, driving each day for 200-300km then spending the afternoons looking around the locality. On the Balonne River in the fishing club grounds (fellow campers gave us some fresh capsicums they had purchased locally). Went bush for the night. Still on the Balonne River, a lovely spot, watched herons fighting for the best fishing spots. Spent the afternoon at artesian spa, very therapeutic. Learnt a lot about opals.
