Hi all. Getting ready to hit the road. I have been going to the caravan shows and visiting heaps of caravan manufactures. During a visit last weekend I found a caravan that ticked all the boxes as far as my requirements are concerned. So I thought I might ask the forum to see what you guys think. Weights ar...

Winter is on the way, and thousands of people will be heading north. If you stay at Broome, Derby or Kununurra, you may wish to fly over the above tourist attraction. I lived in the Kimberley a few years ago, and noted that a lot of tourists paid hard earned money to take the scenic flight, only to return di...

I've just spent the last 4 days down at the free camp at Texas on the Dumaresq river with 8 or 9 of the grandkids and what a great place.

This is a double bunger reccomendation for two businesses.

What food shopping can the town offer? Who delivers groceries to the town, and how often, at what cost? How much is Diesel in the town? Is it a sealed road to the town? Which is the best way to drive with a Caravan from Sunshine Coast? Thank you

The above rest area has been well used over the last few weeks. If it's wet, there is a great bitumen area which gets you away from the mud and overhead trees. But also shady area (smaller) if that's what you like.
