 Reg and I have are all spruced up in our camping clobber, T Shirts jeans and bushman’s hats, and Reg with his hiking stick, me with the picnic basket under arm and we are heading off to Leisurefest, the RV and camping show. The picture above is the floor plan of our great, eco-tourer, slipstream caravan, There are several floor plan designs to choose from and various models, our is the off highway with shower , toilet and wash basin. I love to look inside caravans, fifth wheelers and motor homes, get excited about our next tour, look for ideas that we can incorporate into our own Eco-tourer slipstream caravan and look at the latest equipment marketed for travelers. We actually already own far more travel gear than we can take with us on any one tour, lol J, so there isn’t much that we need. Like most seniors, the budget is tight so it is mostly a case of discovering new ways to make everything we do pack and take, multi function and serve at least two purposes.  For example, our TV unit faces the bed, but also twists around and faces the dining area. It is also a DVD player and the dining table folds back into a small coffee table giving more floor space or the table can be removed to give the maximum of floor space, which allows me to put in an exercise DVD and start doing my weight work out. Two years ago, I took stretch resistance bands for my weight workouts, and these were good, but nowhere near as good as the great quality dumbbells with adjustable weights and the DVD from the Osteoporosis Association of Australia, on strength and balance training. I found that a fantastic start in my fight back from compression fractures of the spine earlier this year. Following the strength training I am dong during my summer and it’s cusps, season in one location here in Northern Victoria, the weights I took last year will be too light for my current needs. I will be looking out for compact size and weight, suited for caravan use, home gym equipment while at Leisurefest. I have just watched this kettle bell work out, http://www.kettleworx.com/infomercial.html it appealed to me as something I could do within our caravan’s limited space and does not involve too large an amount of space to store the equipment. I am off to leasurefest, looking for Kettlebells and goodness knows what I will come home with.J. I hope to be back in hereJ, tonight with photos from the Leisurefest and I’ll let you know for sure, what I bought, and what i fantasized that we bought if we had of had the king’s ransom required to buy. J lol, RV vehicles of today, can cost more than a bricks and mortar home in a top suburb as more and more gray with an a for active, nomads take to this lifestyle as their permanent way of life.
