Let me tell you all about Marilyn. She is perfect. Anything we need from her, we get. She has everything we need. In a car. Dan and I just bought a 1985 Mazda e1800 van to tour around Australia in. We figured, instead of paying for accomodations all the time, dealing with cleaning ladies, snoring women, and transportation costs, we'll buy a van, a one time purchase, and have only gas to pay for. And let me tell you all, we scored big time! This van is the perfect travel van. We paid $2500 for her, and she's got a recently rebuilt engine, all the belts are fine and the tires are like new. The manual tranny is fine except for being a little loose, and there's enough room inside her for everything we need. So starting tonight, we sleep in the van. We bought all our gear like a stove, water container, but the great thing about Marilyn is, she comes with almost everything we need! A cooler, a wicked fishing rod, pots and pans, knives, forks, and more! Even a bodyboard. So from now on, our posts might not be as continuous, but I'll defenitely try to keep updates on what Dan and I do. Time to hit the road!Po Polsku:
