Finding Our Feet!

We have been on the road for just over 2 months now!

Our Adventures have not really begun yet!!

We cant wait to get up to the tip & then head inland & outback, that's when

i think all the action will start!

We have really just been taking it easy, as we are still finding our feet!!

We are so new to this lifestyle, & so far this has been more like one big on going

Tropical Paradise Holiday!!

Over looking the

Great Barrier Reef!

The more people we talk too, the similar the stories are!

We know one thing we need to get to the tip of Aus before the wet season starts in

November, so better still would be September!

Apparently the more people on the Telegraph Track (that's the 4x4 track to the tip)

the more it gets chewed up & more difficult to pass!

Yesterday we were talking to this couple we met here in the park & they have been there before & were telling us some of the water crossings are pretty deep & need to be walked.

We do that anyway, far out, we even walk through & test

The Piddly Puddly Ones!

Mark & I were discussing our trek up there the other week & I said, so when we

go up the telegraph track, he corrected me & said the experts ( that is the caravan magazine mob ) say it is better to come back down the telegraph track & go up

via the Development Road (which is a graded dirt road )

Well I said i would rather go up the bommy one & back down the good one......My theory is because you are excited to get to the top & it's all fun & adventures!!!

On the way back you just want to get to your next destination comfortably!!

Well that's the way i was thinking!

Well now it appears that the people we have spoken to do it my way!

Whacko Sharon, you are right.......Wow this is new!!!!

Even if their theory is not the same as mine........Who cares!

One bloke we were talking to said that the steep hill climbs are easier to go up than to come down!...Sounds logical!

Well now, that brings me to the sleeping arrangements once up there??

We have our oz tent but, that is not croc proof, so i think i will be sleeping in

the back of the truck????

Husband says dont be so ridiculous!

I say........ We will see about that!

Well, with so much money going out & none coming in!

It is time to pick up some more work & then hopefully, very soon we will be off to the tip!!!

That is our Plans & We are Excited!

Bye for Now......Enjoy!
