11th March 2011

After nearly 14 months at home, we are somewhat stir crazy. I’ve modified the van’s water tanks to make the front one exclusively drinking water with its own pump and pipes. Also fitted a camera to the rear of the van so that we can see what it is that is monstering us from behind. Our trip is planned – leave home on the 15th (I need / want / must do the “Big Canberra Day Bike Ride” on the 14th. This covers 25km and includes a decent climb up and over Parliament House.). We’ll take a month to get to Brisbane where we’ll meet all the boys and their families for a joint Xmas in April get-together on Moreton Island.
