ah!! now if I talk about my WORST experience then that would be when we took our parent out laws up to cairns, OMG!!!!

we took a month to dawdle up through broken hill then up the coast through the gold coast and on to the daintree rainforest's, well I am still getting over it 20 years later and I still have flashbacks AAAAAAHHHHH!!!!! theres one now!!!!

"do you think they put that there just so we could look at it, that was kind of them" (500 year old tree)...................... " do you think we could go through Sydney, I'd like to get another loaf of bread, this one is getting stale".................................... "look at all those cows, all walking in the same direction, gee they are clever. how do they know that the house is over there" (milking cows on the way to the shed)...................."is it time for a cuppa yet, I would really love a cuppa"(just finished one ten minutes ago)................."could we stop for a wee break, I didn't want to go at the roadhouse back there it was a bit dirty, could you find a clean one" that was between broken hill and cobar,...... yeah right......clean lavatories are everywhere. AAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!

but I understand what you are asking and yes we have been bogged up to the axles and had to sit in the baking heat for a few days until it dried enough to get out, and yes we have lost the odd trailer with all our supplies and been caught up on rocks in flooded rivers and creeks, but thats travelling and we take the good with the bad, we learn from these things and never take anything for granted, two supplies of water, one in the trailer and one in the vehicle, we learn!!
