Our Tow Vehicle and Van
Permalink  

Hello again, Some of you wonderful people were interested in a photo of our chosen Tow Vehicle and Van (not up with the GN lingo yet). Sooooooooooooooo happy with them. We were bringing the van back from Victoria to New South Wales and thought we'd stop in for a coldie at Ettamogah. Much to our sadness this wonderful tourist place it presently closed.  Van's not stocked yet, but I'm sure Rick will have a coldie in the fridge in future.

Off to Wombeyen Caves, just for an overnight stay this weekend to put up flys and annex. Weather is supposed to be grand.

Have a great day tomorrow.smile

Regards,

Jeannette and Rick

Hi Elle,

The van is a Jayco Eagle 2001. We looked and looked and couldn't decide. Must have looked at 100's disbelief We got this from a wonderful couple who left it fully stocked with great goodies for us.

We love being able to look out to the scenery all the time when we are in it. It also sleeps 6, so hopefully lots of friends will come visit whereever we happen to be.

Thanks for the well wishes.....

They tend to be a bit hot in the summer and get really cold in the winter, but they're very compact, easy to handle and have more space than I'd ever imagine in such a small floor space.
I hope you have many happy km's and stay safe.
