We are on our way, we are myself, Dan the Van and Elaine in spirit.

After trying to make sure that the house was clean and tidy and leaving, hopefully, no loose ends for Jan to attend to I went out to the van. In the van I went through the checklist to make sure that I had everything that I needed. Then at about 8am off we went. I have since discovered that I do not have a little notebook!

There was a fair bit of traffic on the road, including at one stage a number of caravans, I guess returning from school holidays. I was tempted to keep going but yawning is a warning and I stayed with plan A. We are now camped in the RV stopover camp next to Merredin Peak. Merredin Peak is a huge rock complete with drainage system and culverts that feed water into a small dam that once provided water for the steam trains that passed throug( this area. It is a very pleasant spot where we have stayed on previous trips and on this occasion I have just one neoghbour. Admittedly that neighbour is much bigger than us and he had a little car that he tows, which is currently not here, so we can count him/them as two!

After settling in the drone had a little outing, but I am having trouble with colours in my photographs, that are very much over exposed. The I made bread, made noises with the trumpet and will now relax and do nothing until dinner time.

That’s it, more tomorrow.
