A roof-top drying rack, while DC charging

NSW → QLD Road Trip 2022–23

Mixing up the meals today. Breakfast and the final episode of season 1 of Goliath (on the car’s big screen) at 4pm while DC charging. The Tesla roof doubles as a drying rack for the dishes.

It seems that almost all of Childers, Queensland closes at about 3pm. We couldn’t even get a coffee. So, it was DIY with the help of IGA Childers.

  4. If you decide to explore the southern bay islands of Moreton Bay, let me know - happy to shout you a coffee & point you towards a free charger or 2! You can put your Tesla on the ferry & head over to North Stradbroke (Minjerribah) for a day or two of exploring, or just jump on a passenger ferry to check out the smaller islands.
    Come visit our beautiful Redlands! Lots of friendly tesla owners around! 😜
