    Baked Apples, Misty Mountains and a Koala.

    Wineries are great and all, but can be a little pretentious at times. All trying to outdo each other,screaming, look at me , look at me, look how grand and expansive I am, and therefore, my wines must be really, really good. But it’s not all about size,as the saying goes. It’s not how big…

  • A Valley Called Clare, and Who Actually is Owen?

    So, after the Yorke it was good to get back to some normal bush and by that, I mean a tree that’s at least over 2 metres tall! Don’t get, me wrong coastal scenery can be spectacular but me thinks I prefer the bush. The area east of the Yorke in Mid-west South Australia, is…

  • The Yorke

    We go coastal, see some art, slow down, step back in time and get blown away ….. literally. We decided that we would do the Yorke Peninsula, and instead of giving you a blow by blow we thought  ….. ” hey why not just give you the highlights? Working along the west coast from Moonta…

  • Rust n Ruins….

    Bowman Park has been many a thing in its time. 1850’s pastoral lease, campgrounds, government flora and fauna reserve and more but today it is simply a free 48hr RV park, adventure playgrohnd for kids and function centre with old 1850’s derelict buildings. It’s a shame as it has such potential to be more, think…

  • A Most Remarkable Day

    So Baroota ruins campground is on the west side of the Southern Flinders Ranges, once a homestead from the 1800’s now it is barely a shell of it’s former glory.  But there is a nice small, somewhat expensive camp-site that consists of about 9 hard gravel spots, and a long drop loo. For which they…

  • 1877 a good year for Beer

    So to start off after the Alligator Gorge we spent the night in a little parking area beside the road. Plenty of birdlife to keep us entertained, and had a very quiet night. The thoughts where that next morning we would do some walks around Mt Remarkable, so in we drove about 10km to a…

    The Indian Pacific- Across Australia in 4 Days

    With bleary eyes we clawed into consciousness, stumbling awake, on a Sunday morning when the alarm came on, and though it was tempting to turn it off, roll over and drift back to sleep, it was with a sense of excitement that we crawled out from the warmth into the cold early morning. Today was…

    Adventure North – New Territory

    Crossing the Border, we finally enter the NT. Take a walk back in time at Joes Creek, swim in hot springs at Katherine, Mataranka and Bitter springs, watch Brolgas walk through town, and get surrounded by Butterflies

    Adventue North – To the Border and Beyond

    Waking up to bird song always makes for a pleasurable start to the day, well usually unless your trying to sleep in….(and some noisy little critter is chirping away about how pretty the sunrise is and that he made it through another night and how he so glad to be here in his little patch…
