Australian couple Kym and Lyn Bolton have arrived in USA. Their custom Mitsubishi Canter camper was shipped from Vladivostok to Long Beach in October 2010.
Kym's camper suffered breaks in both front leaf springs while in Vladivostok just days before the camper was shipped. The springs are custom long-travel units, not the stock Mitsubishi items. Kym brought replacements from Australia, and had them installed in southern California.
Now the Boltons are exploring the Southwest states for a few weeks before returning to Australia. In 2011, they begin several months of exploration around North America with three other vehicles from Australia and New Zealand. So keep watch for a custom camper with Australian license plates! They were spotted in Oceanside CA recently.
