Once again had to cut trip short due to covid19 outbreak in Cairns. We had a covid test (negative) and headed to Queensland/ Northern Territory border.
3 hours after crossing the border it closed so we just got through.
Drove down through NT remote camping for 2 days, crossed back into SA and had to get a covid test at Coober Pedy 750 km from home. Spent 1 more night camping then home.
Isolating at home for 14 days with covid tests on day 1 , 5 , 13 , if all negative we can leave isolation.
Took a week to drive home camping in isolation in the bush each night, 4000+ kms.
Pleased to report van ran perfectly for the entire time doing just under 10,000km, slept in van about 30 nights so all went well.
Still not a good time to go travelling as covid is still so unpredictable.
Had some great nights camped in some beautiful places which were all free camps so having the van saved a lot in accommodation costs.
When we left for the trip hardly any covid cases in Australia but now it's a mess again most borders closed.
