Finally after carrying around the max tracks (thank you so much to Tim and Hayley for the lend) we got bogged in the sand. The kids roared with excitment Miles in particular who has become quite the 4WD expert, studiously studying all the discarded 4WD magazines at the caravan parks.
No matter that the tyre pressure was way down and we were in 4 WD mode we were going nowhere. We all jumped out to survey the predicament. We had to even get the shovel out to dig out enough sand to lay the tracks. Then with a roar of the engine the car successfully shot forward over the ramps. Hooray. Miles was hoping i think that we would be bogged to the point of creating the ultimate escape- you dig a huge hole bury your spare tyre and attach your winch bury the tyre and winch yourself out. Sounds fun yeah? Steve was relieved we only had to put the tracks down.
4WD legends are we!!!
