Gen and I are heading off… around Australia for our honeymoon and to say we are jumping out of our skin in anticipation would be a massive understatement.
We are kitting out the car for our big adventure. Man there is a lot of stuff you can kit your car out with!!!
It is a little unfortunate the time of it all – because it means we are going to miss out on a lot of the top end, Kakadu, Katherine… etc. It will be the wet season and most of the roads will be closed – work commitments mean we are limited to this time.
There is still a heap to see… and I will be posting regularly telling the tail of our adventures.
Back to the car – since we are pretty much planning on living out of the car for 2 months, we are going to invest in it a little bit. On the list…
Roof Top Tent – purchased and should be arriving any day now.
Fold-out awning with fly screen – on its way with the tent.
Roof Rack – picked up from Roosystems yesterday – strangely enough I brought it home on the existing roof rack.
Hi-lift jack – FREE with the roof rack – how good is that.
Tinted Windows – next on the list. It is going to be hot… so we’ll need all the protection form the head we can get.
Snorkel – Just incase we find any big puddles along the way. 🙂 (should be an wicked grin – because I will be looking for them!)
Fridge Freezer – I have had it for years in anticipation of this trip.
Dual Battery System – check!
I need to find some 12 volt fans as well – I have a feeling we are going to need everything we can get to stay cool. Might have to upgrade the deep-cycle battery as well.
… and this is just the start of the list!!!
I will get some picks up as soon as I have them
