Poor hubby, Neil, celebrates his birthday today minus me. At least he would have started the day with briche and kiwi-as and he did get a cake from me before I left (to look after his 93 yr old mum!)

This is our updated rig. The 5th wheeler is now towed with an Iveco Daily which gives us more room to carry stuff on our round Australia trip next year.

This is a Top Tourist Park so you get the 10% discount if you are a member but you also get 3c/lt off the petrol if you stay here - park is behind the service station. It's on the highway but there's a good sound barrier between the sites and highway. Nice clean facilities. $29/night less discount.
