    Good luck with it all mate, I'm a bit jealous. Hope you have a smooth trip with no probs. Are you taking the Kookaburra with you?

    What shortcomings did you come across?

    I have read and watched others do what we are now planning to do, your turn will come.
    The Kookaburra and all his mates made themselves right at home. They have no fear, we could almost pat them.
    The shortcomings were ours, the trailer is excellent.
    A place to store clothes was something we will address. A fold out pantry will be on our list as well. Opening and searching boxes stopped being fun very quickly. Our cheap can opener lasted half a can! So we had to get creative.
    Our gas bottles sit on the drawbar and being a forward fold I set up the trailer tent before I realised I hadn't removed them.
    A small backtrack with the tent and we were able to squeeze them out. A decent mallet to knock in the tent pegs will be a huge improvement over the limestone rock!
    First time setting up the full annex and that was an interesting process. A few mulligans and it was up.
    I will halve the setup time at the next outing.
    We are currently looking into plumbing the gas bottles to the rear of the trailer where the stove is.

    As I lay there looking up, taking in the spectacular view that was the night sky and the multitude of stars I asked myself, where did my tent go?

    Nothing there sounds too bad, just annoying. You'll have it all setup perfectly by the time you get back home & then will have forgotten it all by the time you leave on another trip.

    How much time do you think the lap will take?

    Nah nothing bad at all but good to learn now. We will both be retired and the house will be taken over by one of our kids who is going back to uni so we have no time limit. We will just stay out there moving around until we have had enough. We are registered for camp hosting so we will see how that pans out.

    A relatively cheap Sunday Artvo day out with the Mrs and Littlens at Melbourne Docklands.
    Well worth it if looking for some last minute school holiday fun today folks.
