Hi. I am a newbie to the forum, but have been reading the newsletter for ages. I am a retired lady, living in NZ (that small country across the ditch) and want to see more of Australia.

Camp Australia Wide book 8 Camp WA #9 Moodini Bluff February 2017 it look like they have two new toilets and new tables This is a link to the same topic in the general section

While heading home yesterday thought we would call in and look at Fraser Station Caravan Park. Great attitude there and worthy of recomendation, BUT the free camp at Moodini Bluff was a disgusting mess. No wonder the authorties are fed up. It amases me how clean living people even stay there, filth an...

Fantastic spot. Plenty of room, honesty system, drinkable water, toilets and dump point. There is a river road, that is worth checking out that takes you to the bend in the river. Maybe do a walk first to check out over hanging limbs, last week I would have taken MH down there no problems, but had already...

About 100 kilometres east of Norseman on the Eyre Highway Camp Australia Wide book 8 Camp West Australia # 25 I did not stop but only drove past in February 2017 It looks like they have built new toilets, and a new dump point

We are in the relatively newly opened RV 24hr stop in Kambalda WA. An area in walking distance to supermarket, and shops. Not a huge area, but possibly at least a dozen, parked sensibly could fit in here. There is a dump point, and you can get a hot shower at the Recreation Centre, just next door for $2!...

The story so far; We are a couple of early '60s models with a a few miles on the clock and a bit damaged, making camping it tent-style, let's say less than comfortable. Not quite ready for the pasture yet though, and still a few adventures in the offering that I'd like to do while the body is still capable....
