  • IT’S GETTING HOT IN HERE

    IT’S GETTING HOT IN HERE

    Driving north, the distant plume of smoke on the horizon began to grow, turning that dark grey that could only mean one thing…… Bushfire!. But it’s not uncommon up here, where the Milli Milli grow, and the outside temp is currently 45°C. The bitumen is quietly melting as we drive onwards, with the road so…

  • 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…

  • 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

    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- Facing West

    So we were homeward bound, and usually when we turn tail, we turn tail and run but not this time, that would come later once we left the peninsula. For we had decided; and righfully so, that the top of the Eyre Peninsula still would hold some secrets to be discovered. But first leaving Port…
