    Now the long hall begins on the treeless plains. The weather is warming up. Had pants and jumpers on this morning. We havnt seen many wild animals until we arrived at the roadhouse. A dingo came prancing out like it owned the place. Thd workers said he came into the roadhouse the other day. The royal flying doctor plain was ready for take off so we watched that. I h asd bought some fancy icecreams from adelaide to have at the start of the nullabor.. they were delish. We will see how far we get today.Read more

    Its a top spot... except.. the really really really loud generator chugged on all night long.... there was a terrible smell of the septic wafting in and out. Tracy and bluey whom we met in fowlers bay arrived and came over for a few drinks.. they are lovely people. Had quite a few belly laughs with them... he even gave me some of his home grown...!!!!! Hmmmmmm interesting. We did have as i have now told the cook had there FAMOUS hot chips and gravy for $8 enough to feed 2 adults and 1 child... true... so we got 2 and shared them with our new friends. Bluey has tatts all over himself even his head. Tracy said only his bum is clean skin... he is the nicest bloke. On the road again just before 8 all showered fresh and ready for another adventure today.Read more

  • We have lost you

    February 6, 2020 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C

    So were leaving frasers ridge. I get milt to stop so i can take some photos. We get to the gate and i put the walky talky on... jen doesnt have her ears on yet.. i get out to take more pics and i rearange the back seat thinking they have somehow gotten behind us.. we wait a bit then hear jen. She obviosly was just out of range. So we presume they have already left. So we leave thinking we need to catch up... every ten minutes i check the radio... nope.. maybe they are behind us. !!!!!!! So we are not going to get too worried.. we will hopefully meet up with them in norsman... i hope they wont be pissed at us if they think we have left without them... we thought they had left without us...Read more
