Freedom, travel, the open road, these are my addictions that I couldn't live without. That is to say, if I no longer had the ability to indulge in these at will, I'm pretty sure I would no longer want to go on living. I'm a born, gypsy, traveller, explorer. If I was born a century or two ago, I probably would have been a Captain Cook or a Christopher Columbus, never happy in one place for too long, going where no (wo)man hath been before, but sadly for those of us born in the 20th century, there aren't really any places on earth left to go now not previously trodden by mankind. Space, however!! Now, THAT is the next frontier, and when Richard Branson's first Virgin Galactic flight takes off, I would LOVE to be on it!
Thes pics were snapped on my recent epic 5 day drive from Adelaide in South Australia to Townsville in the Far North. I loved every minute of it!
