Well the long wait is finally over and we are ready for our trip thats been many months in the planning.
We initially waited on the fares taking the punt that prices would get better than what they were for the trip on The Spirit Of Tasmania. At first the prices spiraled a bit from the original Xmas specials but we dug in and waited. During the week a special buy one get one free in the next 24hours became available and we purchased straight away getting the return trip with our car for $350au a saving on todays fare of about $300+, we were lucky.
Yesterday we began packing the car in earnest and boy what we can fit into our little Subaru Forester is amazing. I also did a trial video or 2 for the car cam setup and also made sure that nothing was going to come adrift in the car.
In the back are camping chairs X 2, quick erect tent, camping table techni ice 60litre fridge,camp kitchen includes pots pans and all our food. StovesX2, gas
bottles and toiletry bags, my backpack pillows and our sink (a plastic washing up tub) and a heap of other odds and sods including more tools for the car including a compressor and a tyre repair kit, cable ties and first aid kits X2. Nearly forgot the portable toilet its a shovel :~)
Cars packed and ready to go 1st thing tomorrow, even the dunny roll is quickly accessible. Under the sleeping bag is 15 litres water and tools for the car, under the dooner is self inflating beds X2.
On this side we have the computer 2 travelling bags for clothes and 3 sleeping bags and a bag with all our shoes in.
My bush hat is in there somewhere as well
