So the Mudies are heading out on an Adventure to experience the Red Centre of Australia. We have been planning this trip for sometime, and have had to postpone once, but we are finally on our way. Our goal is to create lasting memories as a family, to experience something new, and to get away from the "real world" for a while. As an Aussie "Born and Bred" I've grown up living in a land that is known for it's dusty red expanse, and a particularly large red rock. However, I have had no particular connection, having never ventured to the Outback. It is my hope that as we discover something of our Country's "Red Centre" that we will take the opportunity to ponder and discover the centre of our lives and family.
