  • CLOSURE

    This is the second time I’ve done this post because some numpty (aka me)  deleted it before I uploaded it so excuse me if its slightly out of sequence. After having a nice quiet night in Ippinitchie campground, we woke and headed in towards todays objective, Port Pirie. We took in the little town of…

  • 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…

  • 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…

  • Alligator gorgeous – SA Flinders Ranges

    So here we are again, South Australia and not a wombat in sight, we left home in Little bus with a nice long trip planned, up to 3 months if all goes well. We trundled out onto the Nullarbor, making our way east, staying at some new and some old camps, and poking our noses…

    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…

    So it was early in August and we were thinking of our next adventure. Having endured some cold spells looking for wombats on the Eyre Peninsula (but had thoroughly enjoyed it) and our local weather requiring multiple layers of clothing, we thought “Let’s go somewhere warm this time”. We had heard that Darwin was a…

  • In Search of Wombats- A Garden in the Desert

    After a quick resupply in Port Augusta, we were looking for somewhere for morning coffee or even lunch so looked at the new town map we had picked up It all seemed a little underwhelming, at first we thought the esplanade on the water was probably a good start, wrong, all fenced off little parking…

    -In Search of Wombats-   Fire, Water & Steel

    SATURDAY 13th May So the next night we camped at a place called Yeldulknie Weir, (or something like that) last night, was a good night, a pleasant little campsite run by the Lions Club who run a few campsites around here for a $10 donation usually into an honesty box. For your $10 here you…
