Old Update#1 Barossa- Van Improvements

OK - Here we go. Let's get this thing up to date.
Probably not much writing - just lots of photos. Debbie just looks at the photos anyway - don't you Deb???
(If there's no message from her - I'll assume I'm right) he he he.



View from the Cottage to the vineyard.










James wanted to make dinner for everyone while we were in the cottage.


Heading home after witnessing - Lovely -IT WAS SO COLD ! ! ! !





Whilst we were in the Cottage in the Barossa, I made a couple of improvements to the van.'

Namely:




Rear firewood (and general puss) carrier. This has been invaluable. We LOVE our campfires.






Front firewood carrier - not very big - but I had some gal mesh left over. This has been far more useful than I thought it would be.





James helping to 'fabricate' the front firewood carrier.


150mm PVC tube - This is for the framing that goes with the Awning that we ordered in Melbourne.





This is a VERY UGLY and very practical hanging cupboard. We put 3 of these in whilst we were Tassie.


One thing we would definitely do different (if we has our time over again) is NOT GET A POP-TOP. Just not enough storage for 4 of us. Particularly with suits, book-bags, schooling packs, etc. So - these 'cupboards' have helped a lot.








Heres the route we took through Vic and part of S.A. to the Barossa.
