Embracing the Adventurous Life: Goodbye Tassie

Friday, 23 January 2015

We've arrived back in Melbourne this morning, jumped off the boat and headed for a coffee at

St Kilda.

We had a great time in Tasmania, and left our mark at the Red Bridge cafe at Campbell Town:

So goodbye Tasmania, and onto the next leg of our adventure!

Things I've learnt along the way.....

6) Don't look at the price of petrol in remote places, it will only add worry to your day. Best just to fill up when you need to and paywave the worry away.
5) Grass camping sites are worth extra money, time and effort. Sticky red dirt is my enemy.
4) WikiCamps - the best money I have ever spent on an app - do not leave home without it
3) Spraying insect repellent in the door of the motorhome will set off the smoke alarm which will scream ridiculously loudly for 2 minutes.
2) When you pay $4 or $5 per load of washing the concept of mixed load applies - there is no more separating of towels from sheets from lights from darks.
1) A rest stop marked in the Camps book as suitable for overnight stays is usually NOT suitable for overnight stays unless you enjoy sleeping 10 metres from a road.
