Pre Trip Preparation. November 2005

Well it's November already and now less than 2 weeks before departure. I have to admit that considering we have been planning this trip for 4 years I thought we would have been a little more organised. I'm not saying we are disorganised but we still seem to have a lot of last minute jobs to do, some of which where unavoidable and through no fault of our own.Things really started to hot up just before the September holidays. Much to Chris's disgust we de-registered the Falcon in mid August and I built a mezzanine floor over the top of the car so the space could be used for storage. It was surprising how much we where able to pack in that otherwise wasted space. We are lucky that our house in town has 2 double garages as we have used one to store all our gear in which has left one double garage for the tenants. Anything that could be ruined by mice was packed in the Falcon which included linen, clothes and electrical appliances. You have never seen so much stuff in one car. ...
