I usually do the planning for our trips and Woody says “Just surprise me!” Whenever we’re chatting with mates or newfound friends I note the places mentioned and ‘Heart’ the campsites on WikiCamps, gee I wish they’d give us a colour system so I know which are true favourites or someone else’s recommendation, anyway I took Woody to an ammunition dump for our anniversary. Yep, an ammunition dump, how romantic is that? What the hell was I thinking? Most women would choose a 5 star resort or hotel and break out the glad rags. Not me, I was so busy working out how many kilometres we’d cover each day and the rough area that we’d be in that I completely forgot about the date.

If that isn’t bad enough my thoughtful, caring and romantic Woody found himself in a sea of dust and with not enough room to put the awning out without catching it in the neighbour’s Toyota’s roof rack.
