Winny!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We finally took possession of our Winny last Friday, 8th May, and drove out of the RV dealership at 1.30pm, heading north from Melbourne. (We had to wait for our extras to be finished; solar panels, etc.) About an hour and a half later we stopped at a town called Seymour, where we booked into the Highlands Caravan Park. We had a big load of washing to do by this time, and the proprietors were very friendly & helpful.

After that we kept heading north/north east towards Queensland, but even though we travelled 400kms yesterday, we still have a very long way to go to get to Cairns.
We are in Dubbo, mid N.S.W. tonight, free camping at a reserve by a river. We hope we will be OK here.
We have met some other RV'ers along the way, and we are collecting all their tips. We have just purchased some remote internet thingy thing, so I hope to be able to keep updating this inane blog. :-))

I will add some photos soon, when the DH stops driving long enough for me to have some time to upload pics.

I have seen all you followers, so thanks for that. I will try to keep you all updated.

Cheers from Dubbo!
