Arrived safely in Perth yesterday but the new van is NOT the same as our old one! This time we have a Merc (doh!) and there are a few quirks that make it a bit less user friendly than the VW. Had a loovely evening with our friends Trent and Lisa last night at a Swiss-owned restaurant in the suburbs of Perth. Now we're heading South towards Albany and our updates may become less frequent as we encounter the outback. Lots of love to you all, R & J xx
