I have just paid the deposit on our tickets to the UK. We are departing Australia on the 25th of July and returning on the 6th of September! We are flying Finnair, mostly because this saved us around $450 per ticket compared to flying Qantas (most of our actual flights are still Qantas flights though) We get to spend an hour in Helsinki airport on the way home.

Neil and I haven't been on many holidays together over the time we have known each other, but we have done some short trips. We been on some bushwalks:

  • Wonangatta Valley (1994)
  • Willson's Prom (1994)
  • Brisbane Ranges (1995?)
  • Grampians (1994, 1995 and others)
  • Victorian High Plains (various)

Other trips for the weekend include

  • a number of Jag Car Club (S-type register) trips
  • mystery flight to Sydney (Aug 1995)
  • Port Fairy

We also had a week long holiday in the MX5 (ie: Tiny car) along the volcano trail in western Victoria in September 2003. The only other one I can think of was a work trip to Brisbane in May 2005 that I had that we added a few days to either end of, which was fun.
The main reason I have started this blog is for our up comming big trip to Europe. I am so excited, as I have never been OS before.
