Well, we are on our way. As you can see by the attached photos, we picked up the camper van on schedule. It is nearly new, just 32000 km, and seems to be pretty well outfitted. Of course, that does not stop us from outfitting it more – we bought some plastic tubs to store our stuff in, so our packs are stuffed in the back end of that high top. We had a good trip, sunny weather, up the coast from Sydney – took four days to drive to Toowoomba. Have been visiting here with Bob and Sue since Tuesday, will head out up the North Coast tomorrow (Friday) morning. The van is quite compact, but very comfortable to sleep in. Fridge and stove seem to work fine, and the unit is very easy to drive, and reasonably economical on fuel (about 11 litres per 100 km, or 25 mpg).
Anyway, we are over the jet lag, and used to driving on the Left side. So, will carry on and take more pictures.

Excellent photos - hope you're both well and enjoying the trek. The 40th reunion of '67 was a blast - you are both well remembered. Recognized everybody - but they're all old farts. Don't know how I manage to be 15 years younger than them all.
Love, Rob
