Hidden Valley park in Kununurra.
Run down old dump full of filthy back packers. I drew the line at dirty fly blown dishes left lying around one site. At least management acted promptly, but still rubbish blowing around, and it looks like a tip.
(Not all backpackers are filthy, just the few who give them a bad wrap).
The park here is.... Not what I expected. Very well maintained and presented.... Front lawn and entrance, then a run down dusty dump of a park packed in like sardines.
Amenities are filthy, not just, not cleaned today, not properly cleaned ever, certainly not regularly.
Not all, but many sites are like dust bowls. Long weeds growing along site boundaries, haven't seen a mower this season.
Not much effort needed to make it a little more presentable.
There are some really good parks here in Kununurra, this is not one if them.
Good views, which I can see from the road, but that's it. I will not be coming back here, and not recommending it.

Guyra. Cold, wet miserable weather to be living in a swag.
But.... Grandpa lives here so the swag is still strapped to the cruiser and I've been stoking the fire to keep the house a balmy 24? while 2 weeks worth of washing dries on airing racks. We're off tomorrow to complete the final leg of part1 of our touring when we get sort of home to relieve at our old jobs for 2 weeks. We left the boat at a mates place 2 weeks ago in Gin Gin and traveled to Birdsville for the races staying at Emerald (family), Oma waterhole Isisford and Windorah for the yabby races. Left Birdsville last Sunday traveling via Arrabury road to the dig tree, Noccundra, Eulo, Bollon, Nindigully, Burren Junction to Guyra.
Its been a sort of pub crawl with us making a point of hitting the pub for a beer and a chat at the small outback pubs, even did a day trip from Eulo down to Hungerford to visit the Royal Mail hotel for lunch and a beer. Met some great travelers and locals that have made our trip very pleasurable.

Hi Weeds.
You could go for a drive to the Bunya Mountains or to Lake Broadwater.
Not much touristy stuff to see in town.
There is a historical machinery museum in town near the other caravan park.
I'd come say hello but I'm not in town this weekend.
Bell is a nice little place on a hill and has a coffee shop and not much else.

Google his name and have a listen, other then the fire truck going past at the moment with sirens going, it's a nice relaxing morning chilling listening to his music.

spend the day at Universal Studios...it's awesome for all ages.
Six Flags Magic Mountain (45min drive up freeway) is the place to go if you love roller coasters.
Disneyland was awesome (get the early morning pass, allows 1hr earlier access before the gates open to public so you can knock out more rides before the crowds)
Sea World San Diego is 1.5hr drive South from Disneyland, get the $28 breaky show (can book on line) we we're within a meter of the killer whales and is a smorgasbord breaky that's nice food.
(spend the extra for gold/VIP pass at any theme parks to avoid lineup, only way to see all)
Also if you want Happy Days style cafe that serves the best thick shakes and a burrito I drove 3hrs back to gave a second time, Snug Harbor the best burrito I've ever eaten and is rated one of the best in US

Where abouts up the Island would be that spot Barrel ? Is that a Stony Creek FF camper with the rear slide out bed ? thoughts on their good or bad points ..
Sorry for the late reply, patchy reception on Fraser and just got home.
Camp was just south of Cathedral in the Eugarie camp zone just before the end of the zone closest to Cathedral.
The camper is the brand I can't mention on here. The pull out section takes about 5 mins extra to set up but the ability to have both beds set up and the lounge at the same time is worth it.
Done about 8000km all over and no problems so far.

If you have a meal here, you can free camp in the car park and have a free shower! Great value and a nice pub to stop at between Karratha and Port Hedland.

No getting into Porcupine Gorge so we had to alter the itinerary.
We are in Richmond now and spending an extra day or two to see if we will get into Winton and Opalton.
All caravan parks in Longreach have been closed due to the rain. They were using tractors to get the caravans out so looks like we will give that a miss this trip.
Everyone we have spoken to say probably another week before we can get into Opalton as the rain really trashed the road. So who knows from here where we will go?

Should be a nice gutter out in front of that section .. How was the beach run up to Indian head ? Lumpy with small gutters / lagoons up on the high tide mark or is it pretty flat and wide atm ?
Seems to be less trees there now too .

Hat Head, nice. Spent my teenage years at Nambucca Heads (Brisbane based now), but we love camping at Delicate Nobby (south of Crescent Head). It's a bit of a drive, but we've done it a few times now. Will have to drag the CT down there now!

Lake Garda Italy. 7000km into our Europe trip after buying a campervan in Germany back in early May. Only seen one camper trailer so far as not really suited to Europe, a few rooftop tents around though. Our van is 5.99 metres long but go over 6 meters and some tolls and ferry charges double!! Probably the main reason everyone seems to buy campervans. Tolls can be really expensive in France and Italy and one motorway in Italy cost us 38 Euros the other day for 140km (over $50). Will never complain about the M7 toll again :D

It did get very busy, but the persistent rain was a pain. The kids still enjoyed themselves, but it we could have done with better weather.

Stuck in a caravan park in Biloela waiting for the tow truck to take my Triton to the dealers in the morning.
Got 600km into a 4,000km holiday and find out the muppets that did my last service (on Wednesday) didn't seat one of the lines on the common rail properly and it's been pumping out diesel all the way here.
Woke at sparrows fart this morning ready to put in a solid nine or ten hours on the road. Doing my quick pre-departure checks and noticed something had been spraying up on the tailgate, then saw a few spots on the front of the trailer. Look under the Triton, the front of the tow bar is wet, front of the diff is wet, whole under carriage is wet, gearbox wet, traced it all the way up to the second line on common rail. Tried nipping it up with no luck.
Reseating an injector line is not something I felt like doing in a motor inn car park at dawn. Being Easter Monday in Biloela there's not a lot of options for help until tomorrow, so I'm stuck here in purgatory with my fingers crossed for a quick fix in the morning and we can continue with our holiday....

An island, maybe Jillamatong, picture looks a bit like Redfin Bend. We have had a permanent site on the Bunyarra property accross the river from there for the last few years but the property has just been sold and not sure if we still have access ATM but my brother has just bought six acres in Bundalong to retire on. Its a special place up there with all the back waters of the lake, albeit too crowded now. Have shot (in the old days) fished and water skied that area for over 45 years and still enjoy getting up there.

backpackers gave me sh!ts big time on our last visit to Fraser...between the loud dance music they were playing at Champagne Pools amongst the families trying to enjoy the place, and the clowns swimming in the water at Lake Allom (thus stopping the turtles from coming into the viewing area to be seen, the real reason people go to Lake Allom after all), not to mention all the drunk ones we encountered at Eurong shops, i'd had enough of them in the end whilst there. Can't say they have ever annoyed me on previous visits to the island, but they were very annoying last visit......I must be getting old...lol.
yeah, that goes for me... older and grumpier...

In that pic of the swarm of BPers at the table... there were 2 other tables full - the place (HV) was completely overrun - with tag along BPer 4WDs - parked in front of driveways, fences, anywhere...
And entering Eurong earlier same say, I had to enter the village from the wrong side of the track; because there were no fewer than 4 tag alongs stuck, sitting there - because the front one got bogged 20mtrs before the wooden deck / electric dingo grid....
How the freak does that happen???
(Sorry, got a rant going in this thread..).

We were told in Ceduna that the same person owns the stations at Nullarbor, Eucla and Caiguna. No idea if that's true or not.

Hamilton Downs Youth Camp. Our home for the next three months.
Leaving camp for the past few days, camped on the banks of Condamine River.
Only downside over the weekend was the about metre long Redbellied Black snake the kids found whilst playing on the river bank about 40 metres to the left of camp)....thankfully it wasn't interested in them and none of them stood on it whilst running around....it slowly slithered off down towards to the water and we just told the kids to stay away from the area it was in (after that is we showed all the kids the snake and then explained the dangers of it, and what to do next time they see a snake and what to do should they get bitten).

The End of the Line....we got stuck there for several days years ago on an Endevour Car Rally, it rained and closed all the dirt roads in the area with the black soil that is there. We ate the town out of just about all it's food, one more day there and they needed to organise a food drop for us. That blacksoil mud was falling off from under my fourby for weeks afterwards, you couldn't hose the crap off, just wait for it to dry out and fall off on it's own.

Saw 2 actual emus in a paddock between Dunedoo and Lightning Ridge. Even the road kill was months/years old, in this stretch! One farmer must have read the weather forecast incorrectly and scarified a couple of his paddocks. His topsoil was 2ft deep along his fence line, creating a huge dust issue for both his neighbours and passing traffic.

Left Walcha this morning, packing up at - 3 deg C was a right pia. Now at Camp Blackman, Warrumbungle National Park. Powered camping area is nearly full. We have set ourselves up with shower /toilet tent to avoid communal facilities. We were in Potts Point a month ago, avoided that one and are playing it safe. Debating whether to continue traveling in western NSW as planned, might be the last chance for a while if NSW doesn't get on top of the cases. Incidentally at home in the ACT there are 80 odd in self - isolation following the Batemans Bay Soldiers Club infection. Checks on compliance gave 100%, I put it down to people having secure employment and sick leave, so easy choice.

We had that whole site to ourselves a few years back.
Just made it into town before they officially closed the flooded bridge into town. When we signed in at the council offices they said the whole spot was ours. The main camping area was well and truly under water and we had to camp right up on the top of the ridge.
The only thing better then watching the storms roll in every afternoon was laying the hammock right beside the mighty Barcoo in full flood all day.
Didn't manage to bag any yellow belly, but was an awesome place to spend a week or so.

Hope all is OK with the vehicle, Rob.
Stayed at Elachbutting Rock in WA's eastern wheatbelt yesterday.
A magic place.
Made better by the installation of a flushing toilet which was wrapping up as I arrived.
Shire of Westonia foreman said the old enviro long drop was maintenance intensive because people used it as rubbish disposal. There are no bins so why not stick rubbish in the long drop?
But guess what? The brand new loo was blocked this morning.
It may have been a technical problem but I'd bet somebody put something in it they shouldn't have.
Some people.
It's 120km from Westonia for whoever gets to clean up the mess.
Thanks Steffo,
got to Rosedale/ Gig Gin road junction and battery was down to about 6 volts and was worried the ECM would shut down, the tacho had already stopped, the speedo bounced when I used the brakes, so called out the RACQ, first time in 14 years!!, he hooked up a jump pack so I could drive the 1.1 Km to Oakdale caravan park. He tightened the neg clamp with a drill driver, and by the time I got to CP the lights were out and the alternator was charging again ????.
This morning I took it to a workshop and they said it is charging good and battery is ok, although I know taking a battery down so low is doing damage. The batt is two yrs old so dont expect it to last the year out.
Caught up with my mate Noel, who was one of my main customers when I worked for Detroit, and want to see Russell and Troy, then may go back up the road to Rosedale as per previous plan.
Cheers.

RM Williams learning centre - Eidsvold, QLD. Will go through the centre tomorrow as we were a bit late arriving. $10 for the night with toilets. Next door is the showground with limited power and water sites for $15 per night, toilets only. Looks and sounds like most of our small towns in QLD. Will probably head through town in the morning for breakfast and coffee, spending a few dollars where they are needed.
Moore Park Beach holiday park for a week (just north of Bundaberg, QLD). If you get the chance to visit Moore Park Beach, there is a food van parked up outside the surf life saving club (Edit: on most weekends) that does gourmet breakfasts and meals that are to die for. Coffee van parked up next to him, to compliment the meals. The days have been comfortable so far, with heavy rain in the early mornings. Finished up putting the full privacy room up this morning due to rain blowing in under the awning.
Rules Beach Bush Camp, a little bit further north from Bundaberg, QLD, than Moore Park. Great spot with powered sites, unpowered sites, a generator area, and a couple of naturist areas (Needless to say there is also a ban on under 18 persons and dogs, although I'm not sure the naturist area has anything to do with the dog ban ;D). Check it out in WikiCamps 8).
Still at Rules Beach Bush Camp.

To make matters worse, the step frame is bolted to the chassis frame component using nutserts/rivnuts and one of them is loose, so undoing the 20mm bolt took about 15min.

Well here we are at Woomera and SA has just announced a week long lockdown so it looks like we're here for a week. Dunno how much there is that we can see and do though.

G'day Moeite,
Not sure where you will be staying in Woomera, but would be interested in your thoughts if you are staying at the Caravan Park. We had a very interesting experience when we stayed there for an over nighter a couple of years ago. I believe that the Manager is still the same as when we were there. The positive was the Bar at the Caravan Park sells the cheapest drinks in Woomera. Good luck!!!!!!

Yep, same manager. We have no problem with him at all. We've been here a few times before and we've never had any issues with him.
Fndng something to do for the next week could be interesting though. I can think of much worse places to stuck for the duration though.

Today we are at Old Halls Creek and a bloody interesting place it is too. The cemetery has a list of people who were buried here and some of them lived to a ripe old age for any period in Aust history. Must've been some tough people here then.
The other thing that is interesting is the summary of the John Darcy incident that led to the creation of the RFDS.
Apart from that the camp is a bit rough and ready but more than serviceable.
A word about alcohol - there is nothing available in Halls Creek stronger than 2.7%.

As expected, as soon as I took our two Jack Russells for a walk, the three dogs charged in. Not knowing what their intentions were I quickly lifted my two off their feet and swung them out of harms way, not confident at all that I could protect them, or myself fore that matter.
Owner rushed over calling his dog as off, which didn't really have much of an affect. I was busy getting ours back into the van and the wife approached the owner and asked him to restrain his dogs. Answer - They are friendly dogs and won't hurt anything/anyone. He did however return them to their crate.

Town of Bright has been very quiet this year. Caravan parks have not had traffic as usual. Streets have not been as busy. Food shops have been closed. When I have been at the supermarkets there has been a small number of shoppers.

Went to the weigh bridge this morning to check everything out with this rig when it is loaded to travel, ie full water tanks, full load of fuel in the troopy, etc. Our numbers are all legal. I am not sure what the individual axle limits, or actual weights are?
(Allowed)
GCM - 6320 (6800)
ATM - 3240 (3500)
GVM - 3080 (3940 with upgrade)
Ball weight - 320kg (350kg)
Travelled well in 5th, down hill and FLAT, back to 4th for any sort of rise.
Dunolly football club fundraiser, nothing like a country get together, BBQ, few beers etc.

Hunter region that we saw seemed pretty much OK. A road closure at Wollombie was the only interruption to our bike ride, although the original routes all the way down from Brisbane had to be altered with a 'just in case' mind set.

Lost reverse. Y62 patrol. Went site seeing, went to back out of the carpark, and nothing there.
Luckily I could drive forwards over the nature strip.
All forward gears, drives as normal.
It seems the reverse piston seal in the tranny has let go, car moves very slowly when you get the revs up over 4k.
Anyway, made the 900km trip home no worries, so probably saved $5k in towing, which will cover the cost of a reco tranny less labour.

Tibooburra tonight, another one about 0C. Great cloudless skies but a cold wind to keep it cool. Hopefully further north will be warmer.
Been a great number of BRB participants coming back down as we are driving north. All seem to have had a great time and the towns that we pass through think the money spent by those going to and coming back is a great. Local garage here said it has been the busiest fortnight he can remember, and thought the BRB was responsible.
Also good to see the Tibooburra Hotel operating again after the fire/s. Good people and good food. Beer was tasty as well.
Still the same spot, talking to dingo, one of three regulardrop ins each day. Cool winds, fella on the solar radio says about 6 deg c temps and 20kt..RFI internet aerial thingi works a treat. Temps rising feels about 18 C atm ..we got three days to go. Sun Bacon beers and chairs millionare watching to world go by$3 to $3.20 per lt for fuel..hasnt stopped the lines of passers by...

We are in Mareeba. We were supposed to be on the Cape by now but the Mitchell River is still flooded so couldn't get across, and the Burke Development Road was shut too. Had to come the long way round via Croydon.
Good thing diesel is so cheap, or we might have been bleeding about the extra milage. Still warmer than down home though. ;D
First time out for us since covid and the first time with this particular camper. We are in Llangian (North Wales).

His 4wd club went out over the weekend to help clear things up, then the place had a ripper of a storm go through on Saturday night! A lot of rain after a long dry, so the creeks all broke their banks & they're trying to clean up bush-fire debris during a flood! ::)

Thanks Bird, I am pretty useless at posting pics, if someone can give me simple instructions for picking up photos from my iPad camera roll will give it a go. I did it a few years ago after cape trip but I think that was from my PC.
Currently in Berlin, have logged in previously from Vienna, Salzburg, Innsbruck and Zurich. Heading to Hamburg before a flight to Amsterdam then over to UK for a quick visit then home for Christmas.
Not much to report from a camping / outdoorsy point of view as it's winter here and not really the weather for those type of activities. We had plenty of snow early on, but none in last few days and there is only a few random patches of unmelted snow around the place now, everything just stays wet.
On the 4WD front, not much to report there either. I have seen one Prado, a Ram 1500 and a new Ranger dual cab, that's it. BMW and Audi have the SUV market covered, but there are a few Rav's used as taxis. Should also add that the Mercedes AMG G63 is pretty popular (in matt black).
Currently in Tokyo. It's a nice balmy 8 degrees. Beats the 41 degrees at home in Sydney yesterday according to the kids.

We were on site 318 i think, its not normally open at this time of year but was very quiet. The other areas are great, a fair few sites are a little uneven though. 102-105 are on the top looking over the water, apparantly the rangers book those when available. The powered sites looked ok and some in that area where right on the beach, only walked past there.

Yeah, we were up there on Monday to do the final inspection on our new place, and got to see sun, but back in Forster due to delayed settlement on our place in Melbourne, and it's pissing rain here too

Let's see - weather in Melbourne today 29 with a light breeze and sunny skies. Tomorrow 33, Monday 30. Problem is I don't know whether to go to the beach or the Aust Open. It's hard living in the no.4 city in the world where the weather is perfect most of the time and there are so many choices. Brisbane was no. 37 I think in the same survey.
It's not too late Drew. If you are being messed around by buyers / lawyers / banks - tell em all you've changed your mind and turn around. The red necks north of the border will drive you nuts. >:( >:(

Just didn't know what state we were in kayaking the 5-6km one-way journey from HigginsCutting, given I've never kayaked before. Then, no trip is fully complete without another stop along the way home. Just shy of 1600km travelled.
Gotta say that's the hardest corner to complete. All corner posts completed.
The best highlight was being stuck with road closures at Cameron's Corner in 2022.

Had run in with a fluckwit truck driver in an old cfa truck that had a couple prior tries to overtake and didn't have the get up and go.Tried again at the end of an overtaking lane, nowhere to go, took the lesser of 2 evils and hit the side of the truck.
Airlifted to the Alfred , 3 broken ribs, 3 broken spine vertibrae, bit of concussion , some bruising, black eyes, about 300mm of intestine removed, bruising in places I'd never heard of.

Spoke to Keith last night for hour or more... He was in good spirits.
He gave the nurses some Shit when they came in to check on him... So all must be fine with the old bugger. Still in pain and things will take time to sort themselves out and work out long term damage.
Still going to be inside for another week or so. but hes already thinking of what to upgrade to - if he can still get out and about after full recovery.

Ivory's Rock van park, our last night here after another great weekend at the Winternationals. Not as cold as the past few years, it's been good.
Big camping areas, great camp kitchens, seems like every site is an ensuite site (individual ensuites in one big block), hot water is a bit hard to get but once the pipes are warm, it's beautiful.
I tried to put a photo of our camp up but my photos are too big through the website and that Tapatalk app wants me to pay for premium.

Up to youngest sons Friday for the night at Baldivis, and go & see the Terracotta Warriors. Then back to Perth for Saturday night to see Russel Morris, farewell tour. Both well worth the money in our opinion. Russell Morris was spot the under 60s & hardly any under 50, wife counted around 15. Bloody good show though.

One of our favourite places.

Logging in from the Desert Sands Motel in Boulia, it's a little green oasis amongst a lot of dry grasslands. Doing a month long lap of Qld, started at home on Sunshine Coast last week, and stayed at Chinchilla, Charleville, Windorah, Longreach and Boulia tonight. There is a lot of nothing out here - just perfect.
Bigriggen for a week 8) ;D
Catching up with BiL & his Mrs who are home after finishing a lap!
Following on from earlier post, last night was Mt Isa and tonight we are in Karumba. Should have booked a fishing charter as not a lot to do if you don't fish. Tried a few operators but all booked.
Starting to warm up in the next few days apparently.
Left Karumba this morning and tonight in Croydon, yep it's starting to warm up. Was 36 today and I think heading for 39 tomorrow when we get to Cobbold Gorge.
Cobbold Gorge for a few nights, pretty nice out here.

The pool is cool and the beer is cold , bloody nice place to spend a few days
Cobbold Gorge definitely a must see, did the gorge tour and then helicopter flight over it for a different perspective. Last night was at Undara resort, did the lava tube tour this morning and it was great. Tonight staying a Chillagoe, booked in for a few nights.
