9. All the way back home

27-28 January 2024

And now time to head all the way back home. Six hours driving. The girls keep on singing in the campervan with opa and meter. And Tristan enjoys alone time with his parents :-) We cross eachother a couple of times on the road.

We are pleasantly surprised upon arrival at Yass by the warm temperatures (30*C ?) and enjoy a dive in the local swimming pool and a beautiful barbecue to celebrate our last evening on the road.

Next day another 4 hours of driving. But luckily Aiko entertains us with her 'Aussi Jingle Bells' (we have heard it a hundreds times now :-)

Dashing Through the bush

In a rusty Holden Ute

Kicking up the dust

Esky (A food cooler) in the boot (the Trunk)

Kelpie (cattle dog) by my side

Singing Christmas songs

It's summer time and I am in my singlet,

Shorts and thongs!

Oh, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells

Jingle all the way

Christmas in Australia

On a Scorching summer's day

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells

Christmas time is beaut

Oh what fun it is to ride

In a rusty Holden Ute!

Engine's getting hot

Dodge the Kangaroos

Swaggie climbs aboard

He is welcome too

All the fam-I-Iy is there

Sitting by the pool

Christmas day, the Aussie way

By the barbeque!

Oh, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells

Jingle all the way

Christmas in Australia

On a Scorching summer's day

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells

Christmas time is beaut

Oh what fun it is to ride

In a rusty Holden Ute!

Come the afternoon

Grandpa has a doze

The kids and Uncle Bruce

Are swimming in their clothes

The time comes round to go

We take a family snap (photo)

Then pack the car and all shoot through (go home)

Before the washing up.
