Life on the road is simple, each day we would have a set routine when it came to setting up the camper we soon had it down pat and the home away from home would be set up within a couple of minutes. Folding it back up took about five minutes.
Teresa was very happy with the camper as all one had to do is remove our baggage and the ladder and the bed was ready, not like our old 4x4 camper, where you had to change the seats into beds to sleep. With this new camper we would put our tucker box inside with us and the only thing not there was the engel fridge which one had to walk around the ute to use.

Many thousands of Caravans and campers were travelling around and just about every overnight rest areas were full along with back packers travelling in old cars and vans with tents.
Overall it was Grey nomads in these vans and some would stay in the rest areas for days to save on park fees as most caravan parks charge on average $35 plus per night. $35 now that is a lot of petrol money.
One could not get used to all the mosquitoes and sand fly's bites and flies, but, if you applied a repellent they became bearable to a degree.
Teresa is really good at rustling up some grub and cooking with the basic items, so not much weight was lost on my behalf.
Its really amazing how quickly the days go by, and when we stopped for four nights at the Daly River (a really good break) was good but, it was also good to be on the road again.
If there is a road or track, I normally try to put the car down it.
We noted that most people travelling with vans never really got to see much extra than the main roads as just kept the van hooked up which was stopping them from seeing some fantastic out of the way spots.
