Day 14 & 15 Relax

Up early to take the Prado in for its 20,000 Km service at the local Toyota agent, Bell & Moir. I was outside the service centre about half an hour before opening to make sure we got the car back early. The service agent, Erin Jones, arrived early to open up and without bothering for opening time beckoned me in with a cheery wave and a smile. For overall customer service Bell & Moir are very good. Much to Dell’s delight they even washed the car.

We spent the rest of the day writing cards, catching up with emails and finally getting the blog to work.

15 June Tuesday

Another R and R day. We had some interesting conversations with the grey nomads about their equipment and the things they did to make life on the road pleasant. We also learned something of the local cattle properties from two retired farmers.

Stocked up on provisions and replenished the ice in the cool box. Although we have been using the fridges in the camp kitchen for some of our food, the ice we bought in Windorah lasted for 6 days. Glad we bought a good quality cool box.
