Day 90 - Our last day

We are flying home today.  We are all so excited.  I cannot believe how much fun we have had, how much we have learned about each other, how much we have laughed, experienced and just hung out.  It has been the most life changing, unforgettable, unrepeatable trip of our lifetime that will be treasured by us all forever.

Day 88 - Farewell to the Nelsons and our Van

The day has finally come to wave goodbye to the van and farewell our dear friends.  The "handover" occurs back in the caravan park near the airport.  It's freezing!  We say our goodbyes and help Rob out onto the road.  Lots of apprehensive looks from Rob and more anxious looks from Priscilla.  I think they are both questioning what they are doing!!!!!  The kids in the back are having a ball! 

Felt wierd and liberating to see our van head off down the freeway.  We checked into a lovely hotel and caught up with Scooter, Paul and Kai for dinner.

Day 87 - Fremantle Gaol

Kate: A day crammed with sightseeing with the Nelsons.  First stop, Fremantle Gaol which was fascinating and great fun for the kids.  A quick stop for lunch at the Fremantle Markets, a whizz past the Nelson's old house in Subiaco and then a rollic for the kids in Kings Park.  The day ended with a curry night at friends of the Nelson's.  Fun all day!  Now we are feeling sad that it all ends tomorrow and we say goodbye to our friends and the Van.



Lucinda and Jasper were caught being "naughty" and punished by the Warden with a Cat o Nine tails!



The Gang

Crowded cell

Jasper was horrified (as were all of us) that this is what was used as a toilet up until the Gaol was closed in the 90's
