A couple of big weeks!

We had a lovely family type celebration at the start of June for Callie's 21st.  She was happy to have family and a couple of close friends go out for tea and then they kicked on later at the Renmark Club. Of course, the big payoff comes when we head to USA in September, 12 weeks and counting!!

Finally the caravan is in Winkie! We picked it up on Saturday afternoon and spent a few hours with the dealer being shown how everything worked. The bed is made and a few things have been put into drawers but as someone said, it will take weeks probably to work out the best spot for everything :)
So now we have something to ride in and something to sleep in!

Bun has managed to get a crew of backpackers to pick the oranges, they started yesterday and so hopefully the crop will be all off by the end of next week.  That's also when I will take a break from work so we should get a chance to get away for at least a couple of weeks with the van to have a trial run.  We want to make sure that everything works with the truck and the van and also see how good our packing skills are!

We are heading to Sydney on Friday for a very quick visit with Bun's brother and my brother before getting back Sunday night.  Ben let us know that he will do a quick road trip and catch up with us at Tim's on Friday night.

Although we still have a few months before we leave, things are going to be busy so time will go quickly, after all it's already about 11 months since we first made the decision :)

Cheers
