Almost there
Almost there
The countdown continues and although we’re still over 200 miles away our destination feels just round the corner. Strange, isn’t it, how a half hour traffic jam can cause so much stress to a three hour journey, yet we’re getting excited because we’ve only got 24 hours to go!

Today we were blessed with one of the most incredible sunsets I’ve ever witnessed. We sat on the deck and contemplated life as one half of the sky was filled with wispy clouds and the setting sun, and the other half was completely dark with a perfect full moon rising behind us. It couldn’t get much more poetic than this and I don’t want it to end!
