The ANIMAL is due to leave Perth, Western Australia (via Fremantle) in mid January 2015 headed for Felixstowe, England. Karen and Vince will fly out mid March 2015 and arrive at Gatwick. From there they will tour north of England, travel up the West Coast of Scotland and back down the East Coast, transverse to Stranraer where they will ferry over to Belfast in Ireland, touring the Antrim Coast and Northern Ireland and then back down along the West coast of Ireland and back up to Dublin. From there they will ferry over to Wales, travel south and then into the south west of England before making their way to the Eurotunnel at Folkestone to cross to Europe. All up this is planned to take a month or so.
