Chris Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 Well, after a couple of weeks on the road, we have arrived in Darwin. We spent about 10 days camping on the way up from SA, including a few days in the West Macdonnells. This van is so good, everything works as it is supposed to, and the solar system churns out energy.Only a minor mishap - the reflectors on the front of the van fell off, one day apart! Maybe after two years the glue got "unstuck". Small matter to remedy.We plan to be here for about 5 weeks, while Val (the more technical half of this relationship) is out bush doing some mentoring of school principals, and some relief teaching (if they can force his hands off the door jambs, as he resists being dragged into a classroom).Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen and Debbie Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 Hi Chris & Val, glad to hear all is well. Nice to be in the warmer weather I bet as it would be getting quite chilly back home by now. I bet you're enjoying the peace and quiet while Val is out doing his thing (mentoring that is).Stay safe,Glen... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted May 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Thanks Glen and Peter and margaret!Oh it is so hot and humid you would not believe. At home today (Barossa Valley) it is about 13 degrees maximum!!Peter, we are in exactly the same spot as last year - which took a bit of doing, I can tell you. It really helps that the manager of the park has recently taken possession of a Kedron Top Ender. Chris and val Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
