Time to leave Kalbarri and continuing our trek north to experience many of the coastal attractions on offer. Stopping for an overnighter at Carnarvon, we continued to Denham where we based ourselves for a few days. Our main desire for this leg of the trip was to visit Monkey Mia, the home of the famous dolphins which come into […]
We’re on our way to spend time at Karajini National Park. Leaving the coast for a while was a nice change as the temperature managed to drop 6-7 degrees and moving inland meant no more humidity which was a real winner! The scenery driving in was a total change from the coast – the Hamersley Ranges […]
Sensational Broome….aaahhh….where do we start! Our arrival time here wasn’t perfect due to an intense low pressure system hovering around the Kimberley coast, and there was a possibility of a cyclone. The wind was strong, humidity was definitely up there!, and afternoon thunderstorms were the norm for the first few days. So we were grateful to […]
After having some fun up at Cape Leveque we’ve made our way back to Broome. Lucky for us, we timed our return right, as the Broome movie premiere of an Australian film made around the Kimberley called “Mad Bastards” at the outdoor movie theatre, Sun Pictures was scheduled during our stay. (It actually reminded us […]
It’s hard to believe that we’ve already been on the road again for over 3 months! However, given that we’re in a great area in Australia, the Kimberley, I’d be quite happy for the trip to go really slow for a while. Kununurra itself has finally had some growth since visiting here 12 years ago, having previously been […]
There are so many options these days when it comes to campsite lighting, it can be difficult to make a choice. From humble headlamp, portable lanterns, strip led lights, or perhaps your RV comes with outdoor lighting already installed, the list is almost endless. But what if we told you there is a different camp […]
A fairly early start this morning and we drove down to the Barkly Roadhouse to fill up. Not long after, we’d arrived at the Queensland border where we took a few pics and continued to Camooweal. However, as it was a weekend, the entire town was pretty well closed so we hightailed it to Mount […]
After spending a few days of non-event fishing at Karumba 😥 , we called into Normanton on our way back to see “Krys”. The original Krys is very famous…a saltwater crocodile killed in the Norman River in 1957 which was a massive 8.63 metres!! Taking photos with the replica, it was hard to comprehend a croc can be […]
Days 11-18 Day 11 – Today we packed up fairly early and Grant was keen to continue our trip on the OTL road which meant a couple of crossings before getting back on the bypass road. We left Eliot Falls and only needed to travel a short distance before arriving at Sam Creek. It was a […]
Back in Cairns, we hung around here for a few days. We took a day trip up to Kuranda, and enjoyed going up on the Skyrail while spending a few hours looking around before coming back by train. We also had a chance to visit the Cairns Indigenous Art Festival which was on during our […]
