19th – 26th June 2024 We called in to Port Macquarie long enough to say hi to mum, drop off Chunky Bum, then drive down to Sydney on the 1st June. Our singular reason for the visit was to catch up with a good friend of ours. Chris, as always, was the perfect host. …
11th May -30th May The drive through the New England region was quite lovely, even though it rained most of the time. The misty drizzle turned the skies silver grey, but highlighted the trees and provided a lovely show during our drive over the Great Dividing Range, (GDR) and we arrived safely at Port …
1st May to 11th May 2024 The night before we arrived at Kingaroy, we stayed at one of our fav spots. Harland Park, AKA Rodney’s Rest. So named for Rodney the Rooster whom we visited a couple of times over a few months. That being said, we had a wonderful visit with family at …
7th March to 1st May As the heading suggests, this post is more of a factual record than an entertaining post. During this time, we travelled from Kingaroy to Port Macquarie, then back again, with a few stops in between. And you’ll hear how we’ve hit yet another figurative bump in the road.

14th February – 7 March Travelling back from Western Australia we stayed at Shelly Beach Caravan Park in Ceduna. We had stayed there on our way west, and decided to do the same heading east. It’s a good park a few kilometres out of town and only a short walk to the beach. I …
26th September – 5th October We headed east from Lake Grace, (I know, we’re supposed to be heading west) through Lake King, another salt lake, and slightly more pink than Lake Grace, then south to Ravensthorpe. They have the wildflower show here every year, and though we knew we had missed the show, we …
The Port Lincoln Tourist Park has to be one of the best caravan parks we’ve stayed at to date. The sites are huge, level, and well-spaced, offering great views of Spencer Gulf from most sites so we were pleased to be spending eight days there. We used Port Lincoln as a base to explore …
Adelaide So, we finally made it to Adelaide, and what a lovely city it is. We booked into the Belair National Park Caravan Park, which is right next door to, you guessed it, Belair National Park. The drive up to the caravan park was interesting, with narrow winding roads (though nothing like Tom CAT …
Wilpena Pound is one of the locations on Peter’s wish list. I’d never even heard of it, but before we had even arrived, we were in awe of the scenery we passed. Low rolling hills bordered with high rocky escarpments. Just beautiful. Still within the Flinders Ranges National Park, Wilpena Pound (Ikara) is an …
Are you ready to find out how we ended up in Bourke, NSW? Well, this is how it went down. If you recall, I had taken over the driving at Eulo and we had just turned onto the first of a long stretch of dirt roads, heading for Hungerford. After driving a couple of …
