We have survived (just) the mossie plague of 2022. We stayed at Meandarra for 3 days and the first day in particular they were really bad. We were ready to leave the next day but the cold weather has knocked them back a bit. The whole region is bad at the moment we have been … Continue reading Sunset Way
Tara, Qld
Well it’s been a eventful first week since we have hit the road full time. In that time we have winched out with the caravan attached a Landcruiser ute with a long trailer attached that had got itself well and truely bogged to its axels trying to turn around to check on a dog that … Continue reading Tara, Qld
Muntapa Railway Tunnel
We have stayed or passed Cooyar more times than we can remember over the years but we never knew about the Muntapa Railway Tunnel that is only 16km from Cooyar. This is what it is about having more time to poke around places and see what is there. We find these sort of history events … Continue reading Muntapa Railway Tunnel

Let’s go Travel Australia Logo
I have always wanted to do one of those snazzy logos. It’s taken a while for the creative juices to flow to the surface, finally the timing and knowledge to do one has come together. For us it had to have meaning to us, be all our own work and to be what we are … Continue reading Let’s go Travel Australia Logo

The rest area at Jennings is a very short walk up to the Wallangarra Train Station on the Qld border, there is a cafe open everyday and on Sunday a local market. We were very fortunate to time our walk up there to when a steam train was getting ready to pull out of the … Continue reading Relax you are getting sleepy
Relax, unwind and chill a little
Well it’s been an interesting few years. And like a lot of people we haven’t been able to get out and do much travelling. Things are hopefully improving and we can all go explore and travel again. We recently had a few very relaxing weeks away. Very much needed after an extremely busy time and … Continue reading Relax, unwind and chill a little
Swinging Bridge to Tambo
Last night we stopped at Swinging Bridge at Cooyar, the go to place for us when heading west it seems. We had an early night as we knew we would be up early and on the road by 6am. It was a bit of a slow drive with road works, bad head winds, slow traffic … Continue reading Swinging Bridge to Tambo
