We have been back for a week and a bit now and I thought I would share some of our travelling figures with you.
We drove a total of 21,672 kms or 13,530 miles.
The truck consumed 3701 liters of diesel fuel which equates of about 814 Imperial gallons. This gave us a fuel consumption of 17 litres/100 kms, or for those who still think the old way, 16.6 mpg. The total cost of the fuels was $3717,25 or $0.17/km.
We were away 92 nights and ,except for the one night at the gas station in Oregon when the truck was being repaired and the last night of the trip that we spent parked in our friends driveway in Keremeos, we were always in an organized RV park. We used just about all of our membership parks to some degree: AOR, Sunbelt, RPI and the one got the most use and provided us with excellent savings was Passport America. We spent a total of $1,311.04 on camping fees, an average of $14.25 per night.
We were able to take advantage of BC Ferries Coast Saver on our departure from the Island and also on our return. This was a great saving. Our fare was $95 against the normal of $175. Thank you BC Ferries.
It was a great trip and will provide memories and campfire stories for years to come. We are just about ready to start the camping season here on the Island with the Happy Islanders. Thanks to all of our readers and we'll be back again soon.
