“Buy the ticket, take the ride”, someone once said.
I’ve now done the first bit, with the second act to follow when I leave Cairns September 30 bound for Brisbane. I’m due there October 4th.
I’ll be glamping, doing it in a Jucy crib van . More expensive than flying, but I’ll see the coastline, meet some people, and perhaps even get into the briny. I can also take my bike hassle-free.
I’m justifying the extra expense with reminders of a mistake I made in South-East Asia – not seeing the countryside.
So there you have it . Alea jacta est.
