I has been 7 weeks since we have moved into our caravan and so far it has been working out pretty well. We have spent some time residing in the van at our Son Ryan's at Macclesfield, 2 1/2 weeks at a caravan park in McLaren Vale, a working trip to Roxby Downs, minus van and now a trip to Rainbow, Victoria

Just a small trip to rural Victoria to visit my sister Debbie and her family. Ewout has been busy helping her paint some of the paintwork on her house and I have been giving them moral support. We have a wonderful time with Debbie and Greg, they make us feel very welcome and we enjoy their company, drinking some wine & beer and eating some great food.

The weather has been very pleasant, warm and just a bit humid but it has been good to see the countryside looking so green for this time of the year.

It has been wonderful to see the local lake, Lake Hindmarsh with so much water in it, it has been 12 years since it has had water in it and it looks wonderful.
