Times are a chang’in

(these aren't actually Stuart's, they were just on the line in the Derby caravan park!)

Although not far into our trip, and loving the simple life, we are noticing the flow on affects from our much reduced funds and remote locations...

Our boutique beers selection now comprises of VB, EB, a selection of Emu’s, XXXX or Toohey’s New. We thought we hit gold when we found a case of Pure Blonde in cans in Broome! (although we were developing a taste for Tooheys for a moment there!).
Our top quality Scarfo’s meat and Stuart’s homemade sausages have become the $5 special bbq variety.

And as we packed our well worn comfortable camping clothes, we have already patched trousers, mended a broken zipper and stitched up a ripped dress seam!

Yep, we have exchanged our city life luxuries for the country variety of rising each morning with the sun, fresh air, beautiful scenery and no schedule!

I think we will blend in with the locals in no time.....  (and lovin' it!)
