A list, and the most useful tool

Most expensive so far - a growing list
Petrol $2.05 (Ernabella- Pukatja), Yulara (Uluru)
Boxed water - 10 litres $10 Marla roadhouse
Milk - 2 litres $7.50 Daly Waters
Ice - 5kg $8.80 Daly Waters
(Everything else was great value at Daly Waters. Where there was a remoteness and shelf life cost they passed it on. Otherwise not.)
Most expensive flat - new tyre $190 (fitted) Oodnadatta pink roadhouse (but they did have the right tyre in stock so no complaint really...flying in a new tyre would have scooped the pool)

Pictured below is without doubt the most useful tool on board

1. Raking the coals and arranging the fire - many times
2. Managing the camp oven in and out of the heat - many times
3. Lifting the camp oven lid to check on the amazing food within - many times
4. Handle for jacking up the van to dig out wheels from a bog - once and once only I hope
5. Handle for jacking up the van to remove flatty and put spare tire on - twice. Meh, it's easy

And to think I nearly left it home...
