Mystery Box Car Rally

---

Hi everyone, well today is day 1 of our car rally. We know the make and model of our cars but we don't know if they run well or not. We stayed at the Ibis hotel in Adelaide last night. This might be the last time we will have a good sleep for 5 days. Anyhow we finally made it to Manheim at 7.30 and found a hundred people either looking for their cars or decorating them and it was raining. Anyhow we found the cars. Our car the ford AU was a gem. No obvious problems at all although as I write this our abs light just went on. Xavier is not worried as he doesn't use the brakes anyway. Lunch was at hungry jacks in port Augusta. Today was a 560km trip to a town called Wudinna. This is a one horse town and we stayed at the footy oval. The showers were communal. OMG. The baby wipes will come in handy. Dinner was at the oval sports club. A good pork and beef roast. Also the doggies won the semi final and we watched the final quarter. Xavier was in a great mood all evening. The swags are up so let's see how we sleep overnight. We will find out where we are going tomorrow morning. By the way our big doggies flag will be added to the car decorations tomorrow.
