We've now stopped at Princetown Reserve...showers, toilets, power, $15 p/n for me as a single. Not bad at all. We'll stay 2 nights, so...

Thanks to John, Heather, Rod, Norma, Michael, and Tess.I must admit we are now thinking about things differently to when we left Melbourne. We left with a very theore...
