Saturday - 7 January 2006
We left Sydney on Saturday 7 January and headed to Bright with our car packed for a 7 day 4WD tag along trip to the Victorian High Country. It was our first camping trip that was longer than an overnight stay.
As we drove Mike kept thinking that there was something that we forgot and eventually we worked out that we forgot the pole for the tent!!! No tent pole, no camping, as our tent was a centre pole tent. With much desperation we finally located a camping shop in Wodonga that stocked our Freedom tent only to arrive and find that they closed half an hour before we arrived.
With usual Skovron perseverance and luck the owner came back down and sold us a pole for our tent. We wondered what else we had forgotten and vowed to make a check list to tick off for future trips.
The views as we drove from Wodonga to Bright were just spectacular.We met for dinner on Saturday night at the pub in Bright with all the other participants of the trip. It looked like it was going to be a great trip with lovely people.
