Here we are first morning leaving for our big trip to the continent from our home town of Albany, Western Australia, little did we know of the adventure of discovery which was to in our future destiny. To introduce the travelling four of us, me Philip Slade, father and computer technician, my wife Donna Slade, my daughter Rebecca, my daughter Lucy which will be with us for the first two weeks only. No excuses for webpage design or content as it put there in late nights of travelling. Took time for the pages to be posted with heavy nose bleeds and sickness for the first week, so I slept long nights for our holiday beginning. Then internet access is not that easy or cheap to find, one best source is Mac Donald take away as hotels usually charge about $15 for two hours and a lot of their systems are a bit suss. Just to remind you all that photos are taken by me and artistic copyright applies to reproduction of them. Well now if you wish to continue through my pages continue and I will update them as I can catch up and as you can understand it not my first job of the day.

Because of late nights and Rebecca needing the computer for school work, I don't have much time for updating the website while away.

Ps. If driving don’t go without computer navigation, it is handy to know where you are lost!

Up to the May 16 th is done

Summary: 9500 photos, 12 countries, 48 hours flying, 3500 miles driving in Uk no crashes, uncountable Mac Donald meals, forgettable numerous foreign toilet stops.
