  4. I think Sunday 23/12 might be askew - won't the kids still be heading for Melbourne, not Cairns?

    Sat 15/12 will be some variant of - recuperating from having farewelled your earthly possessions, realestate.com and cleaning. I'm assuming you already have temporary storage organised in Cairns. If not, that is another potential activity for 15/12. :-)

    1. Well picked up! Melbourne! Our stuff won't have to go to storage unless our plans come unstuck. It takes all week to travel up by train, apparently.
