THE KOMBI KONNECTION

We're back in WA safe and sound. Kevin ran like a dream, no problems at all. I broke my camera though and now I can't get my photos off the memory card so you will have to wait for more photos till I get it sorted. What a fantistic trip though, if you've never done it I would highly recommend it. We didn't go down to Adelaide but cut straight across through Armidale and Tamworth - sooooo cold, glad we left the heater connected. Went down round Port Lincoln and then to Ceduna and acorss the Nullarbor, we have the sticker and certificate to prove it. In fact Kevin has quite a few new stickers.

Sorry Bricat never got down your way this time would have been good to have a coffee with you, maybe next time or if you come to WA it would be great to meet you.

Watch this space for photos!

Well done and welcome back.

Did you add up your fuel costs for the trip across? Interested.

sorry BJ I'm flat out trying to catch up with tafe work so I haven't been doing much else since I got back apart from having a quick look on the site when I can.
Anyway to answer your question, fuel cost was $1264 and we did 5384kms. I don't think thats too bad for an automatic especially as we only used premium.
I am working on the photos, I am trying to put them all on a link that you can just click on (there are quite a few).

ok, I have spent nearly all day trying to sort this out so I hope it works. I've posted all (well some ofl) my photos on photobucket and hopefully you will be able to go and have a look, if you want to that is, by following this link:
