Tracy came home yesterday after her first big adventure.
After eight weeks packpacking around Europe she walked out through the Arrivals door looking amazingly fit and well, wearing her packpack like a veteran and with a new air of confidence.
She has found her way through parts of England, Scotland, France, Belgium, Holland, Switzerland Italy and Spain – sometimes via pre-planned bus links, at other times by improvising and jumping on and off trains and boats and planes. Well, not really boats, although she did water taxis in Venice.
A little older , a little tireder, and a little wiser, she is now trying to settle back into an Adelaide life-style. I wonder if it will ever be the same.
