eNTering New Territory
We’ve entered new territory. Johnny slowed at the WA / NT border wondering what to do but the border patrol told him to ‘Put your foot down and keep on going’. Easy out! We’d heard the stories of the those trying to get into WA, the forms, the van raids for fruit and veg, the documentation check to ensure you were out of COVID hot spots for the required time, but getting out of WA, no one cared. Instead, a new sight, a 130 speed limit, so Johnny put his foot down, but with caravan in tow, we were happy sitting on 100 and the open road. I’ve got to admit, I felt a teeny, weeny bit anxious about going into the unknown, away from the safety of my own state, but that quickly passed and the anticipation of unexplored territory was exciting. We spent a night outside Katherine at a farm stay where we took a ride on the back of a ute with grass pellets for cow food and had them chase us for it. It was such a funny sight and a great start to our NT stay, especially after our Bungle Blunder. B
