The New Toys!


Here's a couple of the cool Christmas presents we received to take on our trip!
Jon can have a shave now that he has his axe. He used it yesterday and "argh arr argh!" He says he feels like a real man. I like that it is such a versatile tool - chops wood, bangs in tent pegs, protection in the night, weapon to use against crocodiles.
The Totem Tennis set will come in handy for fitness and venting frustration over navigational errors!
ZZZzzzzzzzzz! The whole idea of being ready to go in less than a month now (aahhhh!) is a little overwhelming. Or perhaps J is just exhausted from his 4 hour epic setting up Wireless Broadband. 

We spent a good deal of time and $$$ at the camping shop yesterday buying all sorts of 'essential' Round Oz Trip goodies.
A washing-up tub....
Self explanatory I think...but try saying 'Porta Potti' out loud in public. Hmmmm.
Oh yeah, and we bought an Engel 40l fridge/freezer. But that's not even out of the box yet, and unlike the PP, it comes with a picture of a semi trailer (???) on the box. Very helpful for showing you what you've just spent the big bucks on:)
