The mighty Murray River

Here we are, camping on the edge of the mighty Murray River which forms the border between NSW and VIC. The camp found at Picnic Point is nestled in the Murray Valley National Park and is another little gem. It’s a true bush camp site – very relaxed and everyone super friendly. It’s very similar…

First free camp

I am not really sure what I expected of our first free camp but this place is awesome! We left Ulladulla this morning and headed inland from Batemans Bay toward Braidwood. Unfortunately we got stuck in some traffic after a road closure so a 4 hour drive turned into 6 hours in the car but…

Wairo Beach

What can I say except the last 6 days have disappeared in a blur! After threatening storms and rain, we were blessed with 6 days of wall to wall sunshine for our week with the Taylors. The camp site at Wairo Beach is certainly unique. The site has lots of small permanent cabins – all…

On the road

Well we are officially on the road! After five nights in the safety of Narrabeen campsite, it was officially time to hit the road. Our prep time at Narrabeen was awesome and we couldn’t have been luckier with the weather. After weeks and weeks of non stop rain, we were thankfully blessed with five days…

Time to pack up!

Well what a few days it has been! Over the course of the last week we have sold my little car, packed our 4 bedroom home into a container and transferred our lives into the caravan. The arrival of the container on Thursday marked the start of the big pack up. After weeks of rain…

Under 4 weeks to go and total chaos!

Well, it is officially less than a month until we set off from Narrabeen on our adventure and oh my goodness, it’s total chaos but we are all still smiling! Andy is officially in charge of all things van related and it seems every day of the week the van or car need to be…
