Sorry to say it’s all over...we left Loxton eventually and took the long way home. We stayed an extra day and of course weather was sensational. We took the time on the last day to be REAL ’vanners and we cleaned the van, top to bottom, ready for storage back home – sorry to say I didn’t have any overalls to fit the part but it’s the thought that counts.
Funny how we
travelled 9000km over 31 days and only saw bad weather for about 3 days. The temperature range from 40° C down to about 10°C at
Melrose was a bit hard to handle but luckily we’d packed enough clothes for that kind of variation. I’ve been trying to update the map but it won’t let me… I may do a new one, I also sent links to photos on Picasa but I’m not sure who got the email and who didn’t…if ye didn’t and you want the link send me an email.
We’ll eventually get to Birdsville and
Lake Eyre, hopefully it’ll still have water in it – going by the amount of floods we passed that won’t be hard. All the roads into Birdsville, Innamincka and
Lake Eyre are either still closed or 4WD only so we STILL couldn’t get there with the van even if we had the time…next time.
Anyway, back home now, Ute unpacked, van in garage, weather still good but it’s not the same
L…still the “kids” are in great form and we bored them with the full slideshow, all 900 photos…yawnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.
TTFN…’til next time
