Vehicle maintenance and back to Sydney 🔧

Image
We arrived in Newcastle on another rainy morning but all was good as Vanny passed her inspection, which we were very relieved about. We went for a celebratory swim at the Newcastle Ocean Baths (just me and Matt not Vanny), but don't let the sunny photo deceive you, there was a cool breeze so it was a quick dip. After, we wandered along to Nobbys lighthouse watching the rain clouds ascend on us again.  We drove down the coast to stop at Norah Head for the night, but as we arrived in the rain the driverside window, which had always been a bit dodgy, decided to detach from its winding mechanism. We managed to get the glass mostly into position for the night but this was our new next day priority.  We woke to a clearer morning by the sea treating us to wonderful rainbow which was a welcome splash of colour! Then we were off to buy some pliers to fix our winding window. It took a while but the window is fixed, we've just got to be a bit gentle with it. We had a campsite booked in P...

Walking in a winter wonderland ❄️

Image
From the 1st of June its officially winter here in New Zealand. The temperature has definitely dropped, it's been below minus most nights so the hot water bottle has been getting some good use. We even had ice inside the van when we woke up in Queenstown, I've yet to be cold at night though so the layers are working. We arrived in Queenstown later than planned as we didn't set an alarm and ended up sleeping for 12 hours straight, the Stewart Island antics must have taken it out of us! When we did arrive we headed straight for a Fergburger. They're good burgers that have won plenty of awards, are they worth the hype? Probably not, but when you're hungry a decent burger is always going to hit the spot! We then mooched about the town which is basically full of very expensive shops and places you can book things like bungy jumps. The next day we knew we wanted to head up into the snowy mountains so followed Tiki trail upwards, then Ben Lomond track after that. It wasn...

Goodbye Australia, Goodbye Vanny 😢

Image
After 109 nights with the van, she's finally been passed on to new owners to continue exploring Australia. We thought it would take about 2 weeks but it's taken nearly 3, and there were some moments inbetween we thought it would never happen! There is some sadness, as everywhere we've been Vanny has been with us, but at the moment there is huge relief that she's sold and we can carry on our travels.  It's been a very weird couple of weeks. At times it's been very relaxing with us being able to potter about, not being constantly on the move, and enjoying the coastline. This has been punctuated, however, by van viewings and cancellations, periods of no interest at all, and then the dreaded bartering stage. We ended up selling for a little less than we wanted but it's meant we can head to New Zealand and the buyers had a mechanical check done which highlighted some work so our original price was hard to stand by.  Where we've been based at Maroubra beach, t...
