We learned so much on this trip.
We are going to change the configuration of the dinette table to the lagun system so that we can sit together at the table. Right now, it's too hard to get in and out of the seat on the port side.
We are also replacing the pain-in-the-neck sink with this one from Ikea and this faucet (small with a pullout sprayer). The sink is larger and does not have the annoying lid OR the annoying faucet that turns the water on when you close it, unless you position the faucet just so. Once it's installed, I'll post again.
We're also replacing the yoga mat with something darker so that it doesn't show the dirt as well as the one we have.
And, we're going to better organize the cupboards now that I have a better idea of what we use and what we don't.
As usual, I arrived home and proceeded to get sick, so all these mods will have to wait until I recover. Doc says to stay in bed one more day than I think I should.
Rules of the Road:
1. Don't believe them when they say they have "really good" wifi. They ALL lie. We will be bringing a Starlink antenna with us next time. We had minimal cell service much of the time and never did find a wifi that works.
2. Laundry rooms are not all alike and some are downright gross. I have a portable washing machine and used it at Henk & Vernon's and it worked great for emergency (underwear) loads.
3. We did a lot of boondocking, but we always emptied the holding tanks and filled the water tank when on full hookups, because you never know what the next day holds-even the best plans can get changed. Always be prepared to boondock if you have to.
4. Air Conditioning in the T.A.R.D.I.S. only works when either plugged in OR with a generator. We purchased an extra gas tank for the generator for overnight use (it runs for only 6 hours on a tank of gas, so needed to add to get full night). We only had to use it once and during the day.
5. Always bring a skeleton on your trips for people to comment on and to give them a chuckle.
