Time To Head Home

Well another day came to a close in our little surprise visit, and the 4th day had arrived, this was the Wednesday, and my uncle was not feeling the best, had a nasty cough, so we thought it was time to go home, as we had finished packing the car, my aunt and uncle presented Brett and I with a basket full of chocolates as a Goodies Travelling Basket (YUMMO).

We left around 8.15am stopping every 200klms to check the water in the radiator, first stop Seymour Service Centre just outside of Melbourne for Breakfast at McDonalds, boy was this place busy, everyone was leaving at the same time to go away for Christmas. Then we continued on till we got to a place called "Glenrowan" -- the home of Ned Kelly's Last stand, we stopped here to check water in Radiator, and got a nice cold drink...Then next stop Tarcutta NSW, to get diesel and some cold drinks, which is the half way point between Melbourne and Sydney as I explained in a previous post, Then next stop just up the road at Gundagai to see The Dog on the TuckerBox and take some photos...

Then next stop Yass at the Service Centre to have our meal, and boy do they make the best tucker on the Hume Highway, it was a lot busier at 3.15pm in the afternoon then it had been a few days earlier at 4.00am, people were lined up out the door waiting to pay for petrol....Then next stop Pheasant's Nest to check water again, I had driven from Tarcutta to Pheasant's Nest, and managed not to hit or kill anything LOL LOL, then off again we went next stop HOME, yes at exactly 8.30pm we drove in the driveway, so it took us 12hrs and 15mins to get home with stopping every 200klms or so...

It was sad that we had to leave my uncle and aunt but it was also a relief to be home, and to see the animals again, yes your got it and read it right we left Kosmo, Jaws and Beaver at home, our lovely neighbours Fred and Denise offered to look after them, it took alot for me to be able to leave them here but I knew they would be in great hands...Thanks Denise & Fred we love you lots...
