After my moaning about Grey nomads, camping in general and Australia we are now going to rent our van for the rest of our lives and have ripped up my ticket to come home.  What shocking events - can not believe it and really am gutted. My mum says they ... Read more >

Twenty to nine

AUSTRALIA | Sunday, 7 Aug 2011 | Views [643]

A lesson in life has been dealt to me, never think you can get anyting cheaper, especially off ebay. I purchased a cheapish watch to go travelling in, something that if I did lose or damage I would not be that bothered about, however what would bother ... Read more >

Bingo .......

AUSTRALIA | Sunday, 31 Jul 2011 | Views [432]

I will tell you why Bingo at the end, but it has been a good end to the day. Had a good evening and day in Cooktown - was actually really interesting as it was geared up to tell us all about the adventures of Cpt Cook and the local museum had the actual ... Read more >


Long time no blog

AUSTRALIA | Tuesday, 26 Jul 2011 | Views [631]

struggled a bit to get on the net for a while, been a fair bit of driving and turning up at campsites where they have no sites due to the grey nomad invasion (these are the old people who head for the sun each year). Ended up having a great night in ... Read more >

Kakadu

AUSTRALIA | Wednesday, 20 Jul 2011 | Views [352]

Just a short one this - I can hear the relief as you all read.  Spent the last couple of days in Kakadu, famous for its crocodiles and aboriginal art work.  The first day we did the Adelaide river jumping crocodiles tour and all I can say that it was ... Read more >


Darwin

AUSTRALIA | Sunday, 17 Jul 2011 | Views [454]

I actually never thought that Darwin would actually turn out to be alright.  Spent the day seeing the sights of Darwin and okay I will admit it is not quite like one of the big cities but it is not bad. Today we checked out the aquarium, well not quite ... Read more >

So Barry was a nice man (can't remember his wife's name) who was next to us in the campsite for a couple of days in Derby and we managed to bump into him since in Halls Creek.  He was a nice man, always good for a story and actually helped us kill a ... Read more >

We have everything but a spade ..

AUSTRALIA | Monday, 11 Jul 2011 | Views [424]

So we are now in a town called Derby, not ventured back to the UK yet and this place is a tad warmer than the UK ever gets.  Spent the last couple of days in Broome after some mamouth driving to get us from Exmouth. In what the Rough Guide describes ... Read more >
