Breakdown

We left Adelaide and then our fuel pump started spraying out diesel. We left the van and went to find a garage and luckily there was one just around the corner. We managed to drive the van around very cautiously and the mechanic took a loot at it. He couldn't fix it so we arranged to get a tow truck to take us to the Adelaide Merc garage. This happened on a Friday we had the ferry booked for Kangaroo Island on the Saturday and they said they would fix it on Tuesday as they would have to order the part. Nightmare! We thought we'd be spending 4 nights in our van outside the garage! This is the tow man - very nice and very hairy!

Anyway, we arrived at 3.30 and they had the part in stock and got it fixed by 5pm. Fabulous. How lucky are we?

We got the ferry to Kangaroo Island on the Sunday, only a day late.
