Two days out

It's now New Years Day and time to get most of my clothes ready for the trip. Tomorrow will be pretty busy as we are having lunch at Trevor and Pamela Lee's place at Balhannah, and I really want most things done today.

Why so many shoes?

<--I think I have done pretty well, though what you can't see is the box of food and the esky, yet to be filled from the freezer in the shed.
Why so many shoes? Well the walking boots are "prohibited in the lodge" so I need Crocs or similar. If we go out for a meal, I don't want to wear my walking boots or Crocs, hence the sneakers.
The weather at Falls Creek is in the upper teens at the moment, a sharp contrast to Adelaide's current 43.5, so I've packed some warmer stuff too. My experience eg UK is that I won't be needing it, however looking at the min/max temperature ranges for Falls Creek on Weatherzone contradicts that hypothesis. We'll see!!
I replaced the spare as it was down to its uppers. Going to change from Bridgestones to Coopers as I've had a bad run with the B's. The car just needs to be topped up with fuel and it's ready to roll.
Must admit I'm not looking forward to nearly 1000 km driving on my own. I do have a new talking book for my iPhone about "The Somme" which hopefully will keep me alert and awake.
