Day 73: Stuff

More 'wheels'

I think there are several campers in this park who look upon the Nissan Tiida with new admiration. We have hired one of these to see us through the next ten days while our ute is in the car hospital. It is parked alongside our ample van and I am sure it has raised a few eyebrows and question marks from those nearby. Duncan cheerfully pointed out that we have a Tassie ute, a caravan from Vic and a car from NSW. We seem to be accumulating things with wheels these days, and it has not been a cheap exercise...

The day in general has been fairly blah-ish inasmuchas we haven't really done anything other than pick up the car, collect stuff from the ute and have a couple of walks. The boys have watched a movie and I am about to ferret out enough clothes to keep us going for while we are away having a sort of holiday from our holiday (if you know what I mean). I did purchase some very colourful 'holiday pants' while we were out, which put a smile on my dial (both the spending and the actual purchase). Duncan approved them, so I know they are not too hideous...though a definite departure from my usual black or blue jeans.

Anyway, tomorrow we are storing the van and heading off to greener pastures. We have a lovely little cabin booked in Glen Innes and another on the Gold Coast. It will be odd not sleeping on wheels, but I am sure we will manage.
