Australia 1994   

"The joy is in the travelling and not in the arriving"

 

Introduction

In 1994, I decided to join Mum, Dad and Betsy, the 60 Series Landcruiser, in their three month journey around Australia. The last time I had been with them on such a journey was in 1975. I was only five and so the memories are fading. I had originally written a journal on paper, that is now starting to fade and become brittle, so on someone's advice I have decided to add it to my web page. The memories of the times spent were ignited as I copied the words written in pen on paper, onto the latest medium of the world wide web and my own dot com. The words may be choppy, same with the sentences, but that was my style at the time. Mum may no longer be with us, but she exists in my memories, as well as on this site, and so I dedicate this story to Rosemary Marshall.
