Before we depart

I found this on a blog and loved it:
"These days everyone seems to be in a hurry to get to the next destination, scarf down the fastest food, skip to the next channel and take the short cut for everything. When it comes to traveling, road trips have almost become an archaic way to get there. We tend to forget that it's the moments along the way that shape the whole experience - a peace sign from the driver of a passing car, your favorite rock'n roll song on the radio, an ice cold road soda or a flat tire. So next time, whether you're heading off to an epic music festival or going nowhere at all, take your time, make an adventure out of it and take the long way there."

Ahh the great road trip....such a good feeling. Mad servo stops, crazy conversations, singalongs, camp stories....its all so wonderfull.

Hurse's bonnet will be used to the max for paper bagged beer sessions.

A margaret river car party.

Preparing for the trip has been pretty easy, we've aquired most of the necessities things from Gumtree.com, Op shops and camping stores with sales on.

There has been some cold mornings, Iv been wearing my super stylin cutoffs yew!

We've coffeed ouselves up and survived 5am mornings selling our pre-loved goods at carboot sales to make a pretty penny.

Hurse has been adorned with a shiny black roof rack (not in photo) and some work to her innards.

The carboot sales have also given us to aquire possibly our most loved possesion (besides hurse & ashas new driving pants).......

'All he needed was a wheel in his hand and four on the road' - Jack Kerouac
Jack Kerouac wrote a novel called 'On the Road' in 1951, its about his years roadtripping North America with his friend Neal Cassady, the two roam the country in a quest for self-knowledge and experience. Keroauc wrote the book's initial draft in 1951 on a 120'-long sheet of paper without any paragraph breaks—a rolling boil of text. The book gets pretty trippy at times, but the theme focuses life being the road.

The road is all we will need, and literally all we will have as we make our way across, I know what your thinking....a month isnt enough...i feel the same way........who knows...we could all ditch our jobs......sell our hair........and live in that car for years. I mean she has spots for 3 drinks........she's perfect!

Luv yas all...kissy kissy...xxx
