About 9 weeks to go until our road trip begins and the Preparations are in full swing.
My list on the whiteboard is getting longer with bits and pieces we need to buy or should I say would like to buy before we hit the road
Our Growing Shopping List
- Aqua water cube - For Hot showers where-ever we are
- Sleeping Bags - kids have outgrown there little Juniors
- First Aid Kit - we will probably never use but we it will be nice to have in the camper for a sense of security, the moment you don't have it you are sure to need it.
- Maps - Buy a Map App for the Ipad
- Camera Lens for my camera
- Kayak
- Ipad or Samsung Tablet for kids to use for Schooling, entertainment etc. Ideas please??
- Don't even get me started on my husbands idea to spend $10,000 putting a bigger, faster engine in the car. Very Unlikely! maybe I will just let him keep dreaming. I am happy to keep my driving my car even if it is a slow.
Trip Planning
We have our Map of Australia hanging on the white board and we have started pin pointing our route, adding attractions, places to camp, things to see and do. I don't think we can plan too much. We have never travelled the NSW region before so we might just take each day on the road as it comes. All part of the adventure I suppose. Who knows where we might end up setting up camp each night.
Definitely hoping to do most of our camping in National Parks or free camp spots.
I will upload maps later but for now this is our list of Camping stops!
