Trip: Travelling with kids around Australia

There are [10] stories from my trip: Travelling with kids around Australia


Aboriginal culture - come on Australia

AUSTRALIA | Thursday, 17 Jan 2008 | Views [1888]

Bundy to Airlie

AUSTRALIA | Sunday, 28 Oct 2007 | Views [639]

Well we survived the long haul from Bundaberg to Airlie beach, worth every "are we there yet" and millioneth pit stop along the way.  That stretch from Mackay to Prosperpine reminds me of my days outwest, lots of nothing in between and the ... Read more >

Brisbane never better

AUSTRALIA | Thursday, 18 Oct 2007 | Views [534]

How we love coming back to Brissie time and time again.  Maybe its the unreal shopping, the mega centres you need a scooter and a packed lunch to get around (so Jim suggests), or possibly the awesome sight of Brisbane at night from the heights of Mt ... Read more >

Finally on the road

AUSTRALIA | Monday, 15 Oct 2007 | Views [980] | Comments [5]

A week ago we had planned (no.1 lesson. leave the plans in the storage bay with all the other unnecessary "things"), to leave.  One severe nappy rash on baby Lucy (changing Lu definitely needs to be considered as an Olympic sport?), feeling ... Read more >
