OMG freaking freezing - 13c in Melb. all day.

Darwin to Broome was my one of my favourite places- feeling envious - can't make any decisions to travel yet - gotta wait till Jan. Feb. - family reasons.

Lucky you - beautiful warm days - stunning scenery - think of me freezing to death - while sitting in front of TV with a jumper and blanket - clocking up my electricity bill - ggggrrrrrr.

Have fun

Yep, It snowed here yesterday... I'm planning for an early 2015 take off myself.  I don't mind winter...oh! who am i kidding lol.. Mother Nature needs a rest and although it can be cold and wet and just plain miserable, there is a beauty in snow and frost and rain and cold.
