Tomorrow I leave for two months in Australia. Even though I'm on holiday I'll be keeping on eye on all my favourite blogs, with the help of my Google Reader. I can't believe it took me so long to organise myself into having my computer tell me when some one has posted. Think of all those hours I spent checking blogs each day. I plan on posting a couple of times a week from Australia so have placed my blog feed on the top right hand side if anyone wants to add it to their feed.
We will be spending the first month on the Gold Coast where we are to house sit for our friends. Then down to Melbourne for a week before picking up a motor home and heading back up to the Gold Coast via the inland highway to attend a wedding in November.
Our plan is to spend time driving through the Murray Darling Basin which is where 176,000 hectares of land are devoted to growing 1.6 million tonnes of rice. You can see I'm one of those people who plans holidays around food. The region also has plenty of vineyards and we will spend time in Rutherglen, Echuca and The Riverina .
To keep spam under control I've added word verification for comments. I know it's a pain but it avoids all the nasty spammers on my comments when I am not checking my blog daily.
