It’s pretty widely known that Australians like to throw things on the barbie to cook them. But we’ve recently learned another Aussie word: Brekky (sometimes spelled brekkie), which is short for “breakfast.”
Since our campervan came equipped with a cool barbecue….. uhhh… barbie, that slides out from behind a door on the side of the van, we can make brekky on our barbie, which is exactly what we’re going to do today.
In this fun time-lapse, we show you some of the outdoor features of our campervan, and toast our experience Down Under, which has been magnificent so far.

Now i’m hungry!, one question?, are there any bugs down under, If I tried that here in NC I would be eaten up trying to do breakfast outside! Jealous…enjoy!
There were some bugs up north, but none down here. It’s beautiful!
Speed cooking and OJ shaking with gusto. Bet nobody can watch that time-lapse without smiling.
2 pieces of bacon wow lol …wish i had tht control lol i cook the whole package everytime , hell i eat 2-3 pieces while coooking the bacon lol
So fun. Those little campers are so stinking cute and functional. Bring me one home would ya!
You do need a little one… to fit on your boat! ;-)
Looks like a wonderful brekkie and the mimosa’s were the perfect compliment. One question, isn’t that what we call a camp stove? If that’s a barbie what do they call the barbeques we use here at home?
Every barbecue we’ve seen down here is what we’d call a “griddle” in the States! LOL
Great! I like all of your posts, and this was one of my favorites. Can’t wait to do a US version.
So enjoyed this video! Love how the campervan is so organized and well thought out!
North American manufacturers could take some pointers! ?
“Cheers!”
I’m glad you’re enjoying OZ!
I know I did!!! I didn’t want to leave!
Let it to the Auzzies to be so considerate to even have matches in the “caravan”!
Have a WONDERFUL time!
And don’t forget to hang “corks” from your hat for the bugs!!!
Thanks! Didn’t know about the corks!
That was so cool! And the bubbly was a great touch!
Thanks, Ronnie! We were so happy we got a great “POP” without it overflowing. :)
