The sun was shining when we woke up this morning, but it was still very cold and a big frost had settles all over our car - had to wash it off before we could drive- it's something new for us Gold Coasters. With the sun out and some rain last night magical Bend was stripped of its beautiful snow :( - the winter wonderland had gone!
Today was "get the Turtle organised for the road trip". After jump lead starting it (didn't like sitting their alone for 5 months) and taking the trailer off, we took it to get a service and then organised everything inside - familiarising ourselves with what was where - Amanda and Luke won't be able to find things now - he.... he.... he.... - treasure hunt kids!!!! (only kidding!). We stocked up on our food. We are ready to head off tomorrow.
Captain Pete has mastered the driving of the Turtle very well!!! Just got to get use to the blinkers being on the left of the wheel and not using the windscreen wipers to turn a corner! lol Oh, and remember to stay on the right side of the road instead of the left! - very important over here!
