Getting Ready

---

Getting Ready! Sounds simple like put your stuff in the motorhome and head off into the sunset. I wish!

Our departure has been delayed with a melanoma scare, now removed and appearing to be clear of mutant Ninga-Melanoma warriors running riot around my body.

Marg had a visit to the Dentist today after a tooth became very heat sensitive. A close inspection and Xray showed no issue requiring excavation and repair, so the traffic light has finally turned Green for a departure tomorrow.

Food on board? Yes

Clothes on board? - Yes

Fuel and Water? - Yes

Medication? Not yet but new scripts issued and we are all stocked up ready to go.

GPS? - ready with latest maps. I wonder if they are any better than the last ones?

Cameras? ready to go!

Dash Cam? - That is a new item for us. I bought a Mobius camera and mount - smallest I could find. After our near disaster with a rouge truckie on the way to Melbourne earlier this year, we have opted for a camera to collect evidence. It may come in useful for some pics of landscape where we cannot stop for a photo as well.

Marg has a 3 page check list to ensure that all is packed and prepared. I have the keys and know how to start the Merc and turn on the dash cam.

We will try and post every couple of days while we travel, depending on mobile internet coverage. The first part of the journey is through well populated rural districts, but there will be times we are out of communication range.
