A Second Attempt at Picking up our Caravan

We've been having trouble getting an electric brake unit fitted to our 'new' used car. We need electric brakes so we can more safely tow the new caravan which we have bought. We've been unable to pick up the caravan until we got the problem with the car solved.
Today we picked up the car from the mechanics and tomorrow we head south to Augusta, Western Australia, to pick up the caravan. We are looking forward to being able to get it home and pore all over it. Hopefully we might even plan our first trip away in it.
The photo isn't the best but shows the interior of the caravan. The bed has rounded corners to enable easier access round the bed and there are little cupboards in all the little nooks and crannies. I'm not sure how much of the inside bits and bobs will come with it so it's all a bit new and exciting at the moment.

@JudyEv Yes, Ms. Judy, you can really make good use of your cupboards to store not only kitchen items but other little things too. Your bed looks comfortable too. I think there's a sink on the lower right corner of the photo. Does the van have a toilet too?

@JudyEv BTW, the couple who recently bought our old car work and live in Western Australia with their two children. They just came to visit their family here for 3 weeks.

oh you know what I would do? Add corkboard and magnet board to a few cabinets so I could use the surfaces. Lovely little camper!

@JudyEv could add up photos, post cards,lists, or even, one for a few well used items with magnet or velcro on them, like small flashlights etc

@Marilynda1225 The bus has been good but this will be more versatile.

It's gone off today to the auto electricians. Still trying to get it compatible to our vehicle. We have a motor-home in Ireland and toured over much of England last year. It was great fun. You'll love it if you do it.

I like it already. Probably very comfy too. Are you planning on a long road trip? Don't you just hate it when the car has to be fixed? I have notice as soon as you buy something new...the old starts to act up.

That seems to be the way. We'll be doing short trips for a while as it can be really hot here at the moment.
