Monday morning 7am, Lil is still sleeping but both the kids and myself are up.
Today we leave for our life on the road.
We picked a great week weather wise as its going to be sh*t and will test us a bit.
We are stopping first up 90mile beach at Paradise beach so hopefully it wont be to harsh all week.
We have the first few stops planned but will need some help from you guys as we hit NSW and QLD.
We are hoping to bush camp along the way for FREE and only do Parks if nothing available or its cheap.

We have a dog so bear in mind about National parks policy on dogs when telling us where to go.
We have a camp wide Australia 5 book and there is alot of info but I guess its probably missing heaps.

So please help us out along the way with good spots to bushcamp that are NOT excessive 4wd entry and are Dog friendly.
We dont really require showers and even toilets as we are pretty self sufficient.

We will be updating our blog with pics and stories as we go and also on our facebook page.
We aim to do this trip cheap, not cos we are tight arses but just because good times dont need hefty $$$ spent.

Wish us luck and we hope we see a few of you on the road.

Stookie and Lil,
If the spelling and grammar are good, it's a post from Lil. If not, the mad Scot is on the keyboard ;)

Why do people ask "What the hell were you thinking?"
Obviously I was thinking I was going to get away with it and not have to explain it....

What an adventure very jealous.  I think with your camps book you can get updates for them online but someone else on here might be able to help more with that.  I will be interested to see where you camp as we have dogs and would rather take them with us when we go away.
HAVE FUN

Awesome! Enjoy it!

There's 6 acres here of dog friendly camper trailer space if you are coming via Outback NSW at any time!

Otherwise, I'll point you to some local spots that are fee free and dog friendly (the bore baths are good at this time of year!)
