Quick note to self; MUST ADD THIS TO WRITE OFF BOOK, VOL 2, Chapter 389...

I have packed my expensive (total value $5000) brand new digital SLR camera for our 3 mths backpacking in South America... And before even departing the airport from Brisbane, witness the camera bag fall from a hook on the toilet door whilst perched daintily upon the public throne.

Discovering with imaginary tears that the impact had infact cracked a very usless knob on my favourite zoom lens (the lens is still completely functional without this knob) and blown apart the circular polarising lense that was on the actual camera! agh!

We have since arrived at Singapore airport, with too much time to spare... Let the fun continue...

stay tuned for more exciting details to come....(hopefully not!)

Signing out,

hi Seb and Dee... thanks for sending this link to your trip diary. what stress leaving Brisbane? i didnt notice any!! no really, you guys had a bit to organise from what I could see.
Fuel smell back after only one tripout without it - relatively inexpensive +/- $200 to make the floor hatch bigger (there's more but that's all I took in when Mark explained it to me - sorry Seb) all will be good anyhow. lots of love - Roxie x M x C x O x
