anglesea 4WD course

The Anglesea 4WD course was a great way to start the trip. It gave us heaps of confidence in our car, and taught us a lot about things like diffs and hubs and how to get up and down very steep hills for fun. Adrian du Jardin runs the course, and happened to be mates with Timmmy's dad - small world.

Adrian knew every type of car possible, down to the different buttons different models had on their dashboard. Behind Adrian is Bob, who taught us all about water and hills and smiling.
