And because things come in three's, we also (finally) decided on our caravan!!! Here is a glimpse of our Adria Altea 552pk with bunks...

So, this is our van!!!  We looked and looked, and looked, and looked for a van and it wasn't until we saw the Adria that we both finally decided it was the one for us!

We are getting it converted to triple bunks, so with the dinette converting to a bed (in about 2 minutes), it can sleep 6-7 people!  And it has an ensuite (yay for no middle of the night toilet freezing cold toilet runs with the kids)!  Plus an enormous fridge.
We have to have the ducted heating/cooling removed to accommodate the triple bunks so we are having an Ibis reverse cycle installed in the ceiling.

And the best part is it is under 2 tonnes towing, fully loaded!
We wanted to find a car with high towing capability and a van with a lower towing weight, so that we weren't on the top end of the cars towing ability, putting strain on the engine (and everything else), and that is exactly what we have got.  We are so pleased!

We have a weekend between handing our house keys over and picking up our van and then we can head off on our first adventure!

It's all coming together...
