New Caravan?


June 29 – Sunday

With a bit of cloud cover, the night wasn’t quite so cold, although someone still had to wear his beanie in bed. Hopefully as we travel north and the supposedly number 3 hair cut (the barber’s number 3 proved to be longer than the number 3 on the home clippers!!!)grows, this attire will no longer be necessary.

Today we headed up Black Mountain to the Telstra Tower for an elevated view of Canberra and its regions before visiting the National Museum. What a great place for children – Michael and Emma would have had a ball! Lots to see and do and plenty of iconic 20th Century goods, including a very modern caravan. Thank goodness there has been some forward development in this area as I certainly couldn’t have faced 3 months in their plywood teardrop.

Then it was a short drive in the country to a small town (supposed to be old and historical) which had a centre with the most magnificent handcrafted timber furniture. We could have spent $100,000 quite easily on a few blackwood pieces.

I was thinking your caravan turned very pink and decorated with photos.

Think of all the petrol you'd save towing that tiny thing though! Then you could trade in the Pajero for a Corolla and still be just fine!
