Stats

 Stats for my own benefit. 

Lots of bakeries, cafes, pubs etc were visited as we did our bit to help support Queenslanders. 

We gained 2 dogs and a few kgs on this trip.

We had 38 nights away - 16 in free/donation camps & 22 in paid organised sites (caravan park/lakes etc)

We towed 4,223kms.                                            The cruiser clocked up 4,483kms.

The total our camper has now traveled is ~46,400kms since purchase in 2/2018.

Very happy to have traveled lots of new roads with good company.


Even though covid 19 has impacted on everyone's lives we have been very fortunate and grateful to be able to travel in Qld.
