Day 178- June 21- Synchronicity

Photo- An Synchronicity Moment in the Grampians

Have you ever heard of synchronicity?
It is a number of coinciding events or circumstances that are just too coincidental...Let me explain.

We reach our half way mark in Australia tomorrow, Saturday. It just happens to be the shortest day of the Austral winter today. Yesterday, we said goodbye to Mary Ellen, Colleen's sister and Sean, who returned to visit us for a week before heading back to Sydney and home to Canada. They left home last August, travelled around Australia and New Zealand, ending their time with an 18 day tour of the outback. Did we mention that we, concidentally, met them in the Grampian Mountains, 3 hours west of Melbourne a few weeks ago? It was sad to see them go, as we know that we will not be seeing family for another 6 months. We had so much fun while they were here and Matheson and Kevin enjoyed having "Aunt Moppers and Uncle Sean" to tease.

In just over a week we begin our next big adventure...north to the tropics. We arrive in Cairns on July 2nd, and spend time at Palm Cove, the Daintree and back to cairns for a few nights.
