JIGGETY JOG

After our stay at El Questro Station, a highly commercialised establishment focused on the creature comforts of home, we sighed with relief as we pulled into Ellenbrae Station.

Located about 230 kilometres west of Kununurra along the Gibb River Road, or 70 kilometres ea...

Even though I grew up in a family of all girls (Dad and the dog aside), I still know how to have a good laugh at… well…. to put it nicely, toilet humour. This is not news to those that know me well. But jokes aside, when you have to share a toilet block with your fello...

Personally, I’m not a huge fan of camping at caravan parks. Sure, they have their purpose and we will definitely be using them as a bit of respite while travelling. I mean – laundry, toilets, showers, camp kitchens, grassy sites, pools, playgrounds – you can see why th...

It’s any mother’s worst nightmare – cleaning the mess out of her boys’ clothing. I’m not referring to the regular food blemishes. No. I’m talking fair and square about the red dirt from Australia’s heart. It gets deep into the fibres of your clothes and a regular hot w...

We left Glen Helen Homestead (in the West MacDonnell Ranges) and travelled to Hermannsberg with our final destination to be Palm Valley Campground in the Finke Gorge National Park.

Late yesterday afternoon we pulled into the Kings Canyon Resort and as we were checking in at reception, I enquired about the Kings...

I don’t know what I was expecting at Uluru. Sure – it’s a giant rock that’s photographed more often that Elle MacPherson, so I guess I was expecting to be awed – which I totally was! I was also expecting plenty of red sand, flies galore and plenty of tourists to tussle...

Well… I am exaggerating, but my goodness it’s not far from the truth!

Today started early after an awfully long night with a sick baby. After initially thinking he was just upset and running a little hot from some teeth coming through, we soon started to worry there was...

I’d been warned about Katherine’s crown jewel.  Its sheer beauty demands your attention at every curve, cut, and crease. It sparkles hues of red and orange as sun dances on its surface.  Yet, the light reflecting brilliance of Mother Nature is the stuff dreams are made...

After our lunchtime siesta, we decided to get the blood pumping and walk off all the Easter spoils with a trek to the Upper Pools at Edith Falls, or Leliyn in the local Jawoyn language.

It’s a one kilometre track including a steep 500-metre climb up a rocky path before...
