Walking out on newly polished boards so that they could 'harden up' before moving furniture made sense - Just as well we had a Holiday Booked!
So we packed our bags and headed off to the Local Bus, which took us to the Local Train Station which (eventually via a Rail Removal Bus) took us to Melbourne's Southern Cross Station.
Where we boarded 'The Overland'.
This is a 10 ½ hour Train journey which took us from Melbourne to Adelaide, with a few stops to pick up and drop passengers along the way.
What better way to fill in a whole day?
Watching the Australian Countryside roll by ...
with THIS much Leg Room!
The carriage was full - Not that you'd know it!
We 'splurged' on Red Premium Tickets
which gave us slightly better seating,
2 Hot meals, Snacks and Drinks (Alcohol not included) for the duration of the Ride.
I was intrigued by the suggestion of taking an Electric Scooter - whilst carting 2 suitcases each - along the streets of Adelaide.
But chose the Bus instead.
We COULD have taken Taxis to and from each of the Major Train Stations -
But where is the adventure in that?
