Victor Harbour
. Harbour Bound Our next travel day wasn’t a huge one so we took our time getting packed up and sorting the bus for travel; and then taking the dogs for a walk is always the last job to do…
Wallaroo
. Whilst we didn’t get to be out and about much as all due to the Short One still being so unwell, we loved Wallaroo, and will be returning to spend some more time in this gorgeous part of the…
An SA Peninsula!
. We were on our way to the Fleurieu Peninsula, but first we stopped in at the very pretty little town of Strathalbyn to go to Woolies and get some top-up groceries for the next couple of days, then onward…
Mildura
. Travel Day Leaving Broken Hill and heading toward Mildura, we were on the Silver City Highway, and as the sign told us as we left town, there would be no fuel for 260km. We knew we’d be ok though,…
Wilcannia
. Travel Day Cobar to Wilcannia bought us lots of road-side goats and then more goats! Soooo many different sizes shapes and colours, and being spring, there were lots of bouncy babies amongst the herds, gambolling around the countryside with…
Henrys New Boots
. Travel Day The road to Cobar had loads of Rest Areas – probably the most we’ve seen between towns so far, and they’re really well-maintained and clean. There was also an amazing number of goats on the sides of…
Coona
. Cooee Our next port of call was going to be Coonabarrabran, and unbeknownst to us – until we were quite a ways into that particular leg of the trip – we had managed to get our maps app to…
Happy Birthday

Glen Innes
. Tenterfield We crossed over from Queensland into New South Wales on our next travel day, and dropped in to Tenterfield to top up one of our gas-tanks which had run out the day before. We use gas for the…
Stanners
. Through Warwick It was a beautiful and picturesque to drive through the captivating Great Diving Range, despite the monumental roadworks that are currently taking place. The views were stunning, and coming out to the vistas of sweeping Farmland on…
Ipswich
. Another ShowGround Ipswich was the next stop which we headed off to the following day and we were excited to be getting to spend an evening with another of our Sons and his Family. We decided not to stay…
Western Downs Pt2
. Stunning We arrived at the Chinchilla Weir after only a short drive, with a stop-off at the grocery store on the way – and let ourselves in through the locked gate of the Ski Club, as we’d been directed…
Western Downs
. Our next Travel Day was through to Chinchilla, and we were pretty excited to be going to see one of our Sons, as we hadn’t managed to catch up for about 2 years! Break-time Along the way, we stopped…
Tambo
. Tambo The road to Tambo was good for the most part, and Mabi even lay down for a bit while we were driving for the first time since we left the Farm again, numerous weeks ago. We chose to…
Aramac & back
. After leaving Lake Dunn, we headed back through Aramac to visit the Tramway Museum, and to look for the mini bull statues that we had read about being scattered outside various businesses – which commemorates one of the most…
Lake Dunn
. Chores Before leaving Barcaldine to head to Lake Dunn, we had a few chores to get sorted, so headed off back in to town to get fuel and gas, and to visit the (only!) local windscreen guy, to get…
