I'll give mum a call tonight and ask how serious she is about all this. There's a lot of things that need to be organised.
- They just booked their flight, so how I do I get there?
- Is there space for me in the hotels/tours already booked?
- What will I do for spending money?
- Is it possible to get a passport in time? We're talking max 6 weeks here.
- I need to get my shots.
- I'd need to find a field guide! It'd bug me if I saw loads of awesome birds and couldn't find out what they were. (EDIT: I can get field guides off Amazon, will cost me around $300 for them though).
- Actually, getting the cats looked after isn't a massive challenge. Shell will feed Phantom and Matt could take care of Lil until he goes away (4 days), for that time Gill can feed her and stuff.
- I'll have to figure out how to get around Centerlink's dislike of people going overseas.
- I won't be able to go to Geraldton/Kalbarri with Matt and his folks.
- I won't be here for Matt's 30th.
If it was at all possible I reckon I'd take up the offer. I mean shit, "opportunity of a lifetime" springs to mind. But I honestly don't think it's humanly possible to get everything organised in time.
