My travel year may be over, but back in Australia that's certainly not the case for my sister and brother-in-law. Three years ago they packed up their Subaru and left Tasmania, drove the breadth of the Nullarbor Plain and set up shop in Perth. Now they're moving back, but of course it would be far too easy just to re-cross the continent the same way for over 4,000km. They're going the long way. About the longest way possible without crossing oceans. Up the Western Australian coast, across the Northern Territory, meeting our parents in Queensland for Christmas and then making the final run down the east coast to return home in January. And they're doing it with a five month old. They're blogging about their massive road trip with my adorable niece here.
