april 30th , time to pick up the van.

We packed up and headed out with all our stuff. when traveling for three months you tend to pack too much and we are now carrying it. we have two big back packs, two small back pack packs, and a duffle bag and some other bags.

we load on to a trolly, then catch a train, then go to far on the train and take bus back to where we walk half a mile. We arrive.

Our van check out takes 2 hours, we have a nice slow guy , who looks new. We head out on our first day in the van.

we miss our first turn as usual and waste 30 minutes trying to get back. We miss another turn two hours down the road, and now we are lost.

We get lunch and directions and our first wrong turn , was the right one.
We arrive in torque and laurie quickly heads to the surf shops.
Laurie finds out she can demo boards and so we borrow some boards. Its too late to go out tonight but we check out the surf any ways. It looks good. great shape and size.

we are now only 5 minutes from bells beach and its our first night in the campervan. We meet Ian and ruth from holland who we plan on meeting up with again in cains. They are going another direction than us.
