    Thats it I'm off

    6.30 in the morning my 83 year old Dad gets here, we park his camper van in the shed then the 4.2 gets cranked into life and we are on our way.
    Its (over) loaded with all the necessities for a 6 week adventure.
    Over 4 of those weeks will be "off road", namely the Anne Beadell Highway, Canning Stock Route, Tanami Track and the Plenty / Donahue. Some are more civilised than others but if you have travelled them you will know that can change in a single rain storm. We will see when we get there.
    First spoke of this trip out in the Simpson in 2008 now we have 1 sleep left, some of the convoy are still getting work done, a bracket here, new rims there, picking up seed screens etc. talk about last minute.
    Mine is the only Patrol up against an 40, an 70, an 80 an 200 and an Amorok so we will see who prevails.....
    All going well I will have some stories for you when we get back.
    p.s. a lot of preparation tips came from nissanpatrol.com.au so a big thanks to you all.
    Cheers
    Macca
