    Ettamoga Pub Table Top

    14.–15. Dez. 2024 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 26 °C

    We arrived at stop number one Ettamoga Pub Table Top.

    Took 5 minutes for Adelaide to smash her front tooth and have a mouth full of blood. She was very brave and showed everyone nearby.

    What a wonderful place to make our first stop. Staff are so lovely and besides from Addie’s first smash to the mouth it’s been a lovely start. We played lots of music and eye spy in the car. - Lauren

    Caravan maintenance log- driving down the freeway and J-mould has separating and flying around at 100km. Quick fix with some tape and back on the road. TV cable fried within in 5 minutes of turning on. Unsure if fridge is working on gas. Caravan towed well but definitely overloaded by my wife. - Luke

    I bumped my tooth and it was bleeding and it’s so wobbly. I miss my friends already. - Adelaide

    I love the aeroplane and I love my music player. - Henry    Weiterlesen

    Geelong Showgrounds and hopping on the f

    15. Dezember 2024 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 30 °C

    A stopover night at Geelong Showgrounds before heading to the ferry. Henry accidentally head butted Addie and made her tooth bleed even more. She thinks we might have Santa and the tooth fairy visit this Christmas.

    It was pretty wonderful writing a bucket list with Adelaide today, knowing we will probably tick off all the things she is excited about. We are all so excited to get to Tasmania tomorrow morning. - Lauren

    Rewired the reverse camera, a hose fitting broke, went to Bunnings but forgot to buy it instead I bought other things. Washed the car, fuelled up ready to go on the ferry. - Luke

    This is my best life, I’m going to die of happiness! - Adelaide

    I like the boat. - Henry    Weiterlesen

    Stanley- The Nut

    17. Dezember 2024 in Australien ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C

    We got to go up on the chairlift at The Nut today. Had a big walk around the top and then came down and saw some macropods. Afterwards we had fish and chips and the caravan park.

    It was so beautiful and the kids loved the adventure so much. - Lauren

    I liked seeing the Macropods at The Nut today- Luke

    I liked the swingy thing that went super slow and we went in it two times. I loved going in a big adventure because it’s so big and fun and it makes you happy.

    I liked the seat it was fun- Henry    Weiterlesen

    The Penguins

    18. Dezember 2024 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C

    The penguins have definitely been a favourite, particularly for Addie and me! What a good excuse to stay up late and go see the penguins come out of the ocean.

    These where right in front of our caravan park.Weiterlesen

    Tarkine Drive

    19. Dezember 2024 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C

    Today we started exploring the Tarkine drive. It didn’t disappoint with beautiful rainforest walks, a few wrong turns (stinky grandads fault) which turned into some extra 4WD time and lots of spectacular views.

    It felt really nice to explore the rainforest as a family. I really feel like these adventures are what we have been needing. -Lauren

    The best part of the day was seeing the kids enjoying being out in nature. - Luke

    My favourite thing today was going on adventures and swishing through the bushes. I also loved seeing the penguins and the platform. - Adelaide

    I liked the rocks and going to jungle and feeding the crow.    Weiterlesen

    Tarkine drive day 2

    20. Dezember 2024 in Australien ⋅ 🌬 20 °C

    Day two of Tarkine Drive was full of more adventures. We went to the edge of the world where we climbed the rocks and then the kids went for nudey swims at Nelson Bay in the afternoon. Then we came back and enjoyed the last night with the penguins at Stanley.

    Watching the kids live their best life in the water today and Henry just climbing up rocks with one gumboot and one bare foot just exploring really make me feel all the fuzzies inside. - Lauren

    It’s amazing how some of the simplest things are the most amazing. I am realising more and more how all we really need is each other. Seeing the kids happy and having fun brings so much joy to me. -Luke

    I loved the edge of the world because it the water was so beautiful. I also like swimming at Nelson Bay. -Adelaide

    I liked the climbing up the rocks and going in the sea. -Henry    Weiterlesen

    Arriving at Cradle Mountain

    20. Dezember 2024 in Australien ⋅ 🌬 16 °C

    After saying goodbye to some new friends that we hope to catch again on the road we headed to Cradle Mountain. After a few missed turns we eventually got there and did a few short walks and saw some beautiful spots.

    The enchanted walk was beautiful. I am loving all of the national parks in Tas. -Lauren

    Follow the GPS and don’t think you know better. But it was a nice 30 minute detour looking at nothing. - Luke

    I made a new friend. I enjoyed the tunnels and I loved the view at the waterfall. We saw a red belly black snake.- Adelaide

    I liked music and meeting my new friend. - Henry    Weiterlesen

    Dove Lake and the Tasmanian Devils

    22. Dezember 2024 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 9 °C

    What an amazing day! We travelled up to Cradle Mountain and went all the way around Dove Lake. Afterwards we went to Devils Cradle and watched the devils being fed. We ended the afternoon with an early dinner at Peppers.

    I was so proud that Adelaide walked all the way around Dove lake and Henry did good for the small amount he wasn’t on Luke’s shoulders. The Tasmanian devils were definitely a highlight of the trip. - Lauren

    I liked all the information about the Tasmanian devils and the quolls. The tour guide was amazing very informative and clearly cared about the conservation work she is doing.- Luke

    I liked going on the big blue bus. I also like seeing the Tasmanian devils get fed. I liked the dotted animal like cat. -Adelaide

    I like the blue bus and liked white bus. I would like to play with the Tasmanian devils and the white bus and the blue bus. -Henry    Weiterlesen

    Cruise to Sarah Island

    24. Dezember 2024 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C

    Today we took a Gordon River cruise through Hells Gate into the Macquarie Harbour to Sarah Island which was considered to be one of the worst penal colonies. We finished with heading back to caravan park where Addie and her new friends performed a magic show. Addie told us since day one when she hit her tooth out that the tooth fairy would come the same night as Santa, so it was a great way to end with Addie losing her tooth right before bed.

    The best thing today was watching Addie and Henry sitting the captains seat and press the horn. Their faces were priceless. I also loved when Henry said he was looking to make sure the bad guys didn’t come back on the boat after I explained they used to lock bad guys up on the island. - Lauren

    Need to replace the auxiliary battery on the car. Tested the diesel heater, works bloody amazing. Too hot for Lauren. Cruise was nice, managed to get a a nap and it was very informative. - Luke

    I loved going on the captains chair and I also got to press the button. I like doing the magic show. - Adelaide

    I liked dancing with my friend and the horn went beep beep. - Henry    Weiterlesen

    Christmas day

    25. Dezember 2024 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C

    Our first Christmas away from our usual traditional one at home. We started by cooking eggs and fried ham with toast and had the bigger feast of ham, pork, oysters and lobster later. We even popped down to the beach to fly the kids new kites from Santa and have a little play with the communal toys. We ended our night with roasting marshmallows by the fire.

    It definitely felt different not having all the big family around this year and I missed them all but I loved some of the simple moments. The kids opening their presents in the van felt magical and then being able to go to the beach and play and finish with a fire. It was pretty special. - Lauren

    It was a stress free enjoyable Christmas. It was good to see the kids just playing and having fun. - Luke

    I liked playing with my new friend and my firefighter hot wheels. - Henry

    My favourite thing was getting Stitch and getting special money from the tooth fairy. I loved joining together with my friends and family. The chocolate house was so yummy! - Adelaide    Weiterlesen

    Strahan Adventures

    26. Dezember 2024 in Australien ⋅ 🌬 25 °C

    Today we chilled most of the morning and then went for a stroll visiting the park, the Huon Pine shop and a cafe for coffee and ice creams. At night we went to the ‘Ship That Never Was’, which was fantastic with lots of audience interaction. The ship was almost named after my character ‘Fanny’ but they ultimately decided on Fredrick. Addie even got her own special part playing a cat. She was very keen to be a part of the show and loved being the cat.

    I was blown away by Addie’s confidence tonight to go on stage and be a part of the show. I am just so proud of her. - Lauren

    Another stress free, simple but enjoyable day with family and friends. Got to experience fresh Tasmanian Crayfish, I enjoyed the flavour. The highlight of the day was the show and sitting by the fire having a good laugh with friends. - Luke

    I was a cat and I jumped overboard and got salesman so beautiful. Everyone clapped. - Adelaide

    I went to the playground. - Henry    Weiterlesen

    Rinadeena, Rack & Rainforest

    27. Dezember 2024 in Australien ⋅ 🌧 10 °C

    Today we went to Queenstown to journey the
    Rinadeena, Rack & Rainforest trip on a steam train. We got to pan for gold and although unsuccessful it was very enjoyable. We then headed to our next stop Wayatinah.

    Although it felt like our hands were freezing off, the gold panning was lots of fun and we plan on doing some more fossicking later on the trip. It felt pretty special to go on the steam train with the kids. Henry was being cheeky and showing off being silly to the little girls behind us which was very sweet.

    I loved going on a train ride and having the opportunity to pan for gold. I definitely caught the fever and I am ready to strike it rich . I thoroughly enjoyed the historical tour and information provided about the rack and pinion historical engineering design, allowing a steam locomotive to climb hills up to a 1 in 8 ratio climb. I also enjoyed playing and tickling Henry and watching him fluff on Grandad. - Luke

    Today my favourite thing was going on the steam train and I liked to have a baby chino with marshmallows, rocky road and cookies . I also like cuddles with dad, mum and Henry and stitch. - Adelaide

    I liked the trainy. -Henry    Weiterlesen

    Wayatinah and Mount Field National Park

    28. Dezember 2024 in Australien ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C

    Staying at Wayatinah meant it was only an hour away from the oldest National Park in Tasmania. Definitely not our favourite location of caravan parks but it does have a beautiful big lake. The national park was another gorgeous walk and we went to the raspberry farm and picked our own berries afterwards. Plus we saw our first big thing a giant raspberry.

    I loved the ice creams that were with the berries from the farm and our singalongs in the car. - Lauren

    Seeing the kids explore the berry farm and seeing the work that goes into the fruit that we purchase from the shops was a good experience. - Luke

    I loved getting ice creams and seeing the waterfalls, most of all the horseshoe waterfall. - Adelaide

    Eating the berries. -Henry    Weiterlesen

    Huon Valley Caravan Park

    30. Dezember 2024 in Australien ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

    Wow what a fantastic spot to stay! The kids are loving it here. Riding bikes down the hills, feeding the farm animals, swimming and playing in the bubbles. Daddy has man flu, so the kids and I went for a drive to the park on the foreshore. We got fish and chips and fed the leftovers to the ducks. We ended our New Year’s Eve with an outdoor movie and sparklers with some new friends.

    The beautiful sunshine is feeding my soul. I am loving how beautiful everything is whilst being out in the sun. - Lauren

    Being sick is making me miss the creature comforts of home like not having sand in your bed and having showers that don’t run out of hot water. - Luke

    I loved going in the bubbles in was so much fun. The duck went to bite my hand. -Adelaide

    I liked the park. The ducks bite my bum. - Henry    Weiterlesen

    Tahune Adventures

    30. Dezember 2024 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C

    Today we walked on the air walk and the swinging bridges. Daddy was still suffering from man flu and had to rest, so Henry learnt his legs worked and walk more than two hours on his own. The kids wanted to stop and take photos with every bush and tree.

    It’s so good to see the kids being brave and trying new things. They are adapting so quickly to this lifestyle. It was sad when Henry missed Ebby so we had to FaceTime her. I think I have also caught man flu. - Lauren

    Good maintenance day. Got the van disinfected, aired out and cleaned up a few drawers. I appreciate my wife allowing me to rest so I can recover even know it may have put more strain and pressure on her and that’s why I lover her. - Luke

    I liked the air walk and going on two bridges. I loved mummy and daddy being kind to one another. I love my mum, dad and my brother and myself. - Adelaide

    Taking lots of photos and one in a hole. -Henry    Weiterlesen

    Cockle Creek

    3. Januar 2025 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

    Today we went to Cockle Creek. It was so beautiful, I understand why people like to camp here. The water was stunning. A little chilly but that didn’t bother the kids much.

    It was fun chasing the kids around the water and enjoying being in such a beautiful place. - Lauren

    I enjoyed watching the kids frolicking in the water and I liked when we went for a walk to the whale and I saw two fisherman catching Salmon. It was good to see such a clean and healthy water system. - Luke

    I liked the whale and I liked to see the water because it was so pretty that we got to go on the bridge. - Adelaide

    I love Cockle Creek. We like to hop in it. - Henry    Weiterlesen

    Hastings Caves

    3. Januar 2025 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C

    What a busy day we had! After Cockle Creek we headed to Hastings Caves and Thermal pool. After a quick swim we headed up for a cave tour. Definitely a highlight for us all. Henry cried until he fell asleep because he wanted to go back and stay in the cave.

    It was so cool when the dim lights were turned off and we were in complete darkness. It was pretty cool to think we were inside a cave formed over 30 million years ago. - Lauren

    It was nice to see such a beautiful part of this earth still in its most natural form undisturbed by vandalism. - Luke

    The caves were so cool. We got to hold a crystal and the lady let us do jobs. It was so cool. - Adelaide

    My favourite thing is when the lady told me to jump. - Henry    Weiterlesen

    Last days at Huon Valley Caravan Park

    4. Januar 2025 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 29 °C

    What an experience it was to stay at Huon Valley Caravan park. Our last day consisted of swimming in the river, bike riding and then we watched the calf have a long drink from its mama. Before we left for Hobart today we stopped in at Willie Smiths, the cider was wonderful and the location was really cool too.

    I really felt for the mama cow! That calf kept sucking from every angle and the mama kept moving and had tears in her eyes. It was beautiful but also I mean Mumma feeding babies is hard work. -Lauren

    I loved watching the cows get milk from its mum. I loved being a princess in the chair and I had a beautiful queen cake that was pink with cream, a strawberry and a raspberry on it. - Adelaide

    The cow just pooed and I liked to swim in the water. - Henry    Weiterlesen

    Our little stowaway

    5. Januar 2025 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C

    After finding a stowaway in the grandparents spare tyre on the caravan we tried everything we could to save the little bird that had travelled an hours drive. We called the rescue places and they were not able to help but thankfully we heard from Featherheads Bird Rescue who helped us tremendously as we discovered that there was no baby inside by shining the light into the egg. Addie was really upset we couldn’t save it but when we found out the mama hadn’t incubated this one and there was no baby she was just practising we felt a lot happier.Weiterlesen

    Bruny Island

    7. Januar 2025 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C

    Today we took the ferry over to Bruny Island. We ticked off the major touristy things like the cheese and wine company, the chocolate shop and the lighthouse. We also took the patrollers down to Adventure Bay for some fun in the sun. We got some bread from the famous Bruny Baker Bread Fridge. Whilst daddy rested with still being sick and Henry had a nap, Addie and I climbed all the steps to the look out after we had already climbed up to the lighthouse.

    I am continually impressed how much my little chicken is putting into the days. We ran up to the lookout.. and although I was regretting it, I was very impressed Addie just held my hand and ran alongside me. - Lauren

    I loved going to the bread fridge. Everything was warm and had food in it. I loved going to the big door at Henry and the beach. - Adelaide

    I liked hopping on the boat and doing Adventure Bay with my Chase. - Henry    Weiterlesen

    Mount Wellington and Richmond

    8. Januar 2025 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C

    Today we headed up to Mount Wellington and what a sight it was to see! Such stunning views. We weren’t dressed for the occasion but that didn’t stop us girls from doing some rock climbing! Afterwards we headed to Richmond for some sightseeing including the 202 year old bridge and old Hobart town.

    The windy thin roads really tested my drinking skills particularly when a large bus was coming up and I was going down but totally worth the gorgeous views at the top. The man playing the harp at the bakery was pretty special too. The kids loved going and putting five dollars in his hat. - Lauren

    We went to a puzzle place, up a big mountain and to a bridge that was something years old and I loved the duckies in the pond. I loved the cute town too. - Adelaide

    Cuddling the teddy bears. - Henry    Weiterlesen

    Eventside Sanctuary

    9. Januar 2025 in Australien ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C

    What a wonderful place to stay! The kids have loved waking up to all of these beautiful animals each day. It was so nice to know that the money we spent staying here is going to support the rescue animals on this farm. Such a good experience for the kids.

    The calves and the goats were my favourite. The goats loved a head scratch it was very cute. I love seeing the way Henry is with the animals, when he is not running wild he is so sweet. - Lauren

    I have enjoyed staying at Eventside sanctuary, it has allowed us to test our off-road capabilities and I have also enjoyed a must slower paced stay at this place. It has highlighted that in much prefer a one adventure every three days rather than three adventures in one day. - Luke

    I loved patting the black and white donkey. I also loved the trampoline and the swing. I loved hearing the rooster making the sound ‘cock a doodle doo!’. - Adelaide

    Botanical Gardens, Alice and more!

    11. Januar 2025 in Australien ⋅ ☁️ 29 °C

    What a nice way to catch up with our neighbours! It was so lovely to hang out in the botanical gardens, watch a cute version of Alice in wonderland, hit the Salamanca markers together and then shared a bottle of Spring Vale wine with nice views.

    It was so nice to see our beautiful friends and share delicious wine! It was also cute seeing Henry making little friends at the Alice in wonderland show. He was a little nervous but ended up walking up to some kids his age and chatted with them. - Lauren

    I loved seeing Alice in Wonderland because there was lots of cool music and I liked seeing the peacock on the tractor. - Adelaide

    I made friends. -Henry    Weiterlesen
