- Threaded brass water fitting for caravan that allows mains water to connected. Using a few spare fittings I have managed to work around this!
Repairs
- As we pulled into Wilpena Pound I discovered the 12volt connection between the car and van had become disconnected during travel. The connector dragged along the road for some time destroying the connector. Fortunately the fuel stop at Hawker had a 12pin plug available at $39!! (I paid $20 on ebay before leaving.)


Hi Wandering Wursthorns,
We read your blog today at school and really enjoyed reading all about your traveling experiences so far and looking at your pictures. Robyn thinks you are doing alright with the fuel consumption.
