Leaving Carnarvon Gorge, we headed to Emerald for a couple of nights to restock and see a few sights. When we arrived in Emerald we had to scrub the roof of the camper and wash the car to get the bat poo off before it caused any damage. While there we checked out the giantContinue reading “The Big Trip Part 3”

The Big trip part 2
As mentioned in part 1, we ended up in Gladstone with a broken car and we ended up being there for a week. Even though we were on foot for the week we still managed to see a few things as well as do some planning on places we want to see as we continueContinue reading “The Big trip part 2”
A Tassie Christmas Adventure Part 1
Over the Christmas / New Years period of 2019, we along with some good friends headed to Tasmania for a month to explore as much as we could in the time we had. Tasmania has so much to see and do for such a small place that you could easily spend 3 months there andContinue reading “A Tassie Christmas Adventure Part 1”
The big Trip part 1
Welcome to our big adventure!!!!!!!!! After 2 years of jokingly saying we should quit our jobs and travel for a while, our stars seemed to align and we actually made the decision to do it.

Mt Everest & Island peak trek
Back in 2012 I finally completed one of those dream trips I had been wanting to do for a very long time. Mt everest base camp and also Island peak. This is not an easy trek as the altitude alone will stop you dead in your tracks if not fit enough to manage the reducedContinue reading “Mt Everest & Island peak trek”
High Country Snow driving weekend

This trip I had my 7 year old son with me and another friend was well in his car. The original planContinue reading “High Country Snow driving weekend”
Packing and storing clothes
Travelling with 2 small children creates all sorts of fun and challenges. One of those is clothing storage. We have tried a few different options, bags, soft collapsible shelves but these always had problems. As we are towing a camper trailer on most of our trips we would have space to put the clothes storageContinue reading “Packing and storing clothes”
Mt Kosciuszko day trip
This was a day trip I did in November 2007. The NSW snowy mountains are a beautiful area at anytime of year. There are so many areas to discover. You can walk to the top of Mt Kosciuszko from either Charlottes pass or from Thredbo. Thredbo is the easier and shorter route at just over 6km eachContinue reading “Mt Kosciuszko day trip”
