One of the things about caravanning is we frequently encounter better caravan parks, and this one moves near the top in our experience. The reception people were magnificent; the powered sites were just that, not extr...

I would dearly love to spend a couple of months camping there, so can anyone tell me i...

Brisbane to Perth, my best mate has just done this trip on a 750 motorcycle, SOLO. It's further than travelling across Europe (over 4000 Ks) and nearly as far as Ewan and Charlie are famous for doing in their long way series on T.V. This overlay will bring the enormity of the trip into perspective. M...

Set off from Ban Ban Springs by 7am heading initially for Eidsvold where I wanted to ascertain that the pharmacy there carried the medication needed for my 6 monthy injection for bone density. Hard enough to get to Eidsvold from Wuruma without finding that it is unavailable. Ended up having to get to r...

The wind has dropped, the birds have gone to bed and the crickets are chirping. I have a glass of wine and just watched the sunset. The too close neighbour has moved on. Maybe this solo travelling life ain't so bad after all.

Pat on the back for Dougwe, while I am fairly new to the forum, I notice that Dougwe always gives a friendly welcome, and gives encouraging advice to the new comers on the forum. While others do their bit also, I notice Dougwe is always there. Good Onya Doug.

I would want to stay mainly in caravan parks. Has anyone who has been around that route experienced any difficulties or problems ,such as being exc...
