Just love it Rick,
Will have to venture that way next year, We tented it for years and then a camper, now a caravan and it is just the ducks guts. The bride and I will be on the road in ten days time a few days in Toowomba and off to Millmeran for three days of clay shooting 160 to 180 campers at this shoot. Enjoy your new toy.

that's how it was Aart. everyone we camp with lately has a caravan. was not financially ready to update yet, but bargain betty came along ;D ;D ;D

it will suit our close bush camping get-a-ways perfectly.

already enjoying it Muzz ;) except we threw the mattress on the floor to get a decent nights sleep :) :)

will replace the bed and move part of the lounge to suit us.

did not come with an annexe, so will have to rectify that with an awning. we love sitting outside and dread the day that we cook and sit inside ::) ::) ::)

we stopped at a caravan park on the way home and was surprised that we were the only ones using the bbq area and the recreation room. all the caravanners were tucked inside cooking with their microwaves and watching the idiot box ::) ::) ::)

did a you-tube of our little holiday.
