We kicked off our road trip through New South Wales this week. We are making our way down the coast in the direction of Sydney. We started in a sweet country town called Bellingen where I met up with some friends I hadn't seen in almost twenty years. What a perfect start to a road trip, I am still trying to get my head around the fact that so much time has passed.
Australia is chock full of adorable and unique towns. I appreciate the lack of corporate big box stores which contribute to that "anyplace USA" feeling. Don't get me wrong, the USA has imported plenty of the corporate brand names which are found all over Australia. Still, there are plenty of towns that have loads of individual character.
Friends.
I am floored again and again by Australia's beauty.
Super mosaic depicting evolution.
Aussie motel.
No road trip in Australia would be complete without a little wallaby feeding.
More from the road . . . soon.
I can't wait to see/hear all about it. Been thinking of your family with all the fires. Josh and I were wondering what you were encountering.

Desi and Josh, Thank you for thinking of us. We have been juggling our plans around the fires . . . Things are starting to mellow out-we made it into the Blue Mountains where it is now pouring rain! I hope to post more pictures in the next day or so. Much love to you guys xo
