At Tallahassee Airport (20th September)

The morning is spent packing and fiddling to finalise photos, etc. We then make our way to the capital to have a look around the old capitol building. Florida has had a very interesting and checkered past with wars, segregation and civil rights. We have lunch, wash and feed our trusty steed and head to the airport. The month has come to an end and the touring is over. Our trusty steed has been bid a fond farewell after 4,108 miles / 6,600 km (to put that into perspective - Melbourne to Perth to Melbourne is 6,800 km), 7 states visited and a lot of sights seen. The South really does live up to the reputation of the friendly states, and the food has been tasty and very different to the rest of our trips. We have enjoyed ourselves immensely. Now the flight home! Just under a couple of hours to Dallas, then 16 hours to Brisbane and for me, a couple of hours to Melbourne. Will be home sometime Monday afternoon. Russ and Carolyn are over nighting in Brisbane before heading for Perth on Tuesday. So the party is over!!
