Day 119 – The last day! Horsham to Canberra… Home!

7 Dec

Smash somehow woke us up from the comfort of our cozy bed at the Rasmussen abode at 5am (yes, 5am!) and we left Ian to sleep in and got on the road super early to tackle our 902km day. Trundle … Read More »

Day 117 – Nullarbor: Bunda Cliffs to Hancocks Lookout

5 Dec

Last day on the Nullarbor! It was a lot quicker and less painful than we had anticipated, which was nice. Nullarbor translated means no trees, and the Nullarbor Plain is exactly that. Well lots of scrub. But definitely no trees. … Read More »

Day 116 – Nullarbor, Norseman to Bunda Cliffs

4 Dec

    First day on the Nullarbor! Feels good! Pretty intensely straight roads right from the start – then we hit the 90 Mile Straight. 146km of dead straight road, the longest straight stretch in Australia. That was straight. Very … Read More »

Day 101-115 – South West Region

3 Dec

Just a post to give a quick sum up of the week and a bit spent in the beautiful Margaret River region and surrounds with our respective lads which was awesome! Trundle and Finn took the Renault and Smash and … Read More »

Day 82 – Driving Tom Price to Exmouth

31 Oct

Another 5am wake up call for Trundle (unintentional – just couldn’t get back to sleep!) to watch the sunrise from the RIP lookout over the nearby mountain range, which was spectacular. It was eerily that it was so quiet yet … Read More »

Day 79 – Driving to Port Hedland

28 Oct

Our final morning in Broome was spent at Sarah and Peter’s lovely guesthouse cleaning and packing our things in to the car. We had a lovely coffee with Sarah in the main house before heading off and chatted about our … Read More »

Day 69 – Kooljaman at Cape Leveque

18 Oct

And we are off on the road to Cape Leveque! Via the Broome markets to get a smoothie. And Woolies to get prawns. And the bottle shop for beer. All the necessities. The road out there was definitely not 2WD … Read More »

Day 67 – Windjana Gorge and Tunnel Creek

16 Oct

Woke up in the Derby caravan park (we arrived too late yesterday to find anything else..) to a luxurious breakfast of Kununurra mango! Amazing! And watched the resident albino peacock strut around and fuss which was hilarious. We checked out … Read More »

Day 64 – Bungle Bungles South

13 Oct

Once everyone was packed and ready to go, we started the slow and steady drive down south to the Bungle Bungle turn off in convoy with the boys. The stops for smoko and topping up cold bottled water were actually … Read More »

Day 63 – Emma Gorge

12 Oct

Off we trek to the Gibb River Road! …well, just the very start bit of it. The one section that’s bitumen. So it’s not really that hardcore. We were heading for Emma Gorge for the morning to have a walk … Read More »
