1st month on the road

💙 1st month wrap up 💙
VIC - SA - NT

Can’t believe it’s been a month already 😳
We have 💙loved💙 our adventuring with MancHester, our set up has worked really well for us and we are not missing work one little bit 😜

We have had a few ‘oops’ but nothing drastic so far 🙏🏻 (included crashed drone, broken pop top latch, cracked water overflow pipe, snapped antenna x2….)

👍🏻 Highlights - too numerous to list them all (includes Oodnadatta Track, sunrise at Kings Canyon, sunset at Farina, water cascading down Uluru, views from St Mary’s Peak and Euro Ridge, date ice cream, emu pie, flying over lake eyre covered in water, swimming in waterholes by ourself, conquering the Larapinta Trail…..)

👎🏻 Lowlights - flat battery, broken antenna, mossies at Coward Springs, so many 43 degree days, sooo many (6) severe thunderstorms

😥 Challenges - grinding out the kms of corrugations and bull dust through the painted desert road ( the scenery helped😜)

🍻Pubs visited -a few 😜 (Royal Hotel- Sea Lake, Historic Overland Corner Hotel, Craddock Hotel, Royal Victoria Hotel-Beltana, William Creek Hotel, The Pink Roadhouse, The Marla Bar, The Outback Bar-Yulara, Thirsty Dingo/Sunset Bar- Kings Canyon Resort, Bojangles-Alice Springs, Alice Springs Brewery)

💙 Hester - carafan, new fridge locks, new bedside (storage) bins, new orange outside light, new stick on mirror
