We had a big day travelling from Three Springs to Carnamah this week … 22 kms! Uneventful through fields, either already tilled and seeded, or ready to go. Past Yarra Yarra Lakes without a drop of water in them. It looks like it may have been a while since sufficient rain has fallen to make…
What a gem. Not for the facilities available: it’s a conservation area so no ablution blocks, no water, no rubbish bins. Just grsded gravel sites in the Miners Campground. If you love history, beautiful surrounds, and sunsets, you’ll love this. Absolute peace and quiet. No traffic noises, 34 kilometres from the nearest shops, and not many…
We seem to have been inadvertently looking for quirky camping spots to stay for a day or two at a time, so that we can enjoy the peace and quiet, while going for walks through bush land and townships. Deciding to weave our way around the midwest and reading reviews on Wikicamps and Camps Australia,…
Leaving Cue after another couple of days looking for weird old school items in roadhouses and shops, we struck out west and after a hundred-odd kilometres duly arrived at a little country town called Yalgoo. In native dialect it’s believed to mean ‘blood’. With a rugby game due on Stan, that determined Michael’s priority, so…
Travel day. it was a leisurely breakfast; the usual slow wriggle out from under the doona, a protein shake, and the kickstarter for the day … coffee! That was followed by the pre-travel mental checklists. Clean, stow and secure. Fired up Adolf, and after a farewell lap of Cue, we struck out north – as…
Arriving in Mount Magnet expecting a lot of old buildings and steeped in history, sad to say, we were underwhelmed. It was late-ish though so we decided to stay overnight, and move on to Cue the next day. We did our research on Cue (no pun intended) but couldn’t find much useful information, so assumed…
Just spent an incredible couple of days relaxing and camping at Baandee Lake in Western Australia! This hidden gem is a salt lake, with little water at the moment, so no swimming, but the stark white landscape and surrounding bushland are unreal. Perfect for a peaceful escape, or a rest up before hitting the Nullarbor.…
The tales of the somewhat unmitigated disaster that is ‘The Lap’ continues. We’ll reveal the entire sorry details of the trip so far in a future instalment. Hint. The window is not the only drama. Today however, after an eventful day in the big smoke yesterday with a gazillion errands to run; we’re back in…
