You've probably all guessed, from the absence of blogs, that I am HOME!!! If you're thinking that the reason I haven't been blogging is because I have been busying myself with cleaning the caravan and putting everything away then you are dreadfully mistaken. No, I only wish it were so. Since being back I have… Continue reading Back home….. Final Big trip blog – For now!!!

Beyond NT – part one
When we left Uluru we said goodbye to our travelling friends with the plan to do our last two weeks solo. After some teary and melodramatic goodbyes we only spent one night apart before ending up back together at Coober Pedy. Coober Pedy was one of the parts of the trip that I was really… Continue reading Beyond NT – part one
Beyond NT – Lake Eyre
One of the benefits of doing the Oodnadatta track is that we would get to see Lake Eyre with water in it. Considering I had not seen it without water I was not desperate to see it with water. But Ben was ovely excited about it so I feigned enthusiasm for his sake. When we… Continue reading Beyond NT – Lake Eyre
My achievement – not climbing Uluru
The decision not to climb Uluru was not an easy one to make. Everyone else in our group was going to do it and my husband and kids were all geared up to do it - me being the sheep that I am had also planed to do it. I had posted my intentions on… Continue reading My achievement – not climbing Uluru
Alice Springs
Alice wasn't too bad. I definitely wouldn't rate it as one of the top towns we visited. There are lots of things to do around Alice though.The town itself, while boasting quite a few shops, wasnt much to look at. We stayed a fair way out of town away from all the problems... or so… Continue reading Alice Springs
Race around Australia
That is what it feels like we are doing at the moment. Such huge distances to cover in as short a period as possible. There is nothing for 100's of kilometres, and we really don't want to hang around in the middle of nowhere. So hence we have spent yesterday and today driving humongous distances… Continue reading Race around Australia

Post mixups
-I accidently published 'Mataranka Downdgraded' after 'Catch up Katherine - Kakadu' when really it should have been before. Can't work out how to fix it on my phone.
Mataranka downgraded – Edith Falls is the best place in Earth!!
Looking around at the dry, barren, arid scrub that is all over the Northern Territory it is hard to imagine that you will find ANYTHING of interest in this place. Then out of nowhere you will find something so spectacularly beautiful you are completely astounded and gobsmacked. This happened the other day. We had arrived… Continue reading Mataranka downgraded – Edith Falls is the best place in Earth!!
Catch up post… Katherine – Kakadu
I promise to never call anywhere the best place on earth again. Every time I do I find somewhere even better. I am also running out of adjectives to describe things. I apologise if this is sounding repetitive.It has been about 5 mins since I completed my last post, but I have sooo much to… Continue reading Catch up post… Katherine – Kakadu
