Who hasn't done something similar.....
(Preview)
First trip in this van & I forgot the tripod. Not much fun trying to prop up the dish on a post & rail fence & make it work. This first trip was a shakedown to discover what we forgot to pack. The first thing (no second actually) missing was notebook & pen!

Getting into hot water!
(Preview)
 600 k north of Sydney, Moree is the place to sit in the hot artesian water and easy away the aches.
Best place to stay is the Gwyder Caravan Park, 3k south of town which has four clean pools, free for resident use. A good place to go to decide where to go next!
