20/07/2019 We are now back in Derby, parked MIA in the storage area of the caravan Park, and tomorrow we get picked up at 9.30am to go for an overnight stay at the Horizontal Falls. We have been hearing about this experience for years and are both very excited to be going tomorrow. Our biggest […]

17/07/2019 We have driven the 200km from Derby to Broome to see the legendary Staircase to the Moon. We booked into the caravan park at Town Beach which is where all the action is suppose to happen. This way we get to watch the moonrise, have a couple of drinks and not need top worry […]

14/07/2019 We are now staying at the caravan park in Derby, Frank is fixed, everything is back to comfortable. Luke from Mt Elizabeth told us how he had never cooked a mud crab before, we decided that with his birthday being in the coming week we would source some live Mud Crabs, and get them […]

11/08/2019 We arrived at Mt Barnett Road House around lunchtime, will spend the night here, and hopefully get picked up tomorrow to head back to Derby where MIA is stored. Jodie who manages the roadhouse had heard about our plight and offered us the use of one of the station vehicles so that we could […]

02/07/2019 The plan was to travel 7km back to the GRR then 30km east along the GRR then 30km north to Mt Elizabeth Station. The road out here is a bit rough, and not everybody makes it. This day turned into somewhat of a disaster, perhaps we hadn’t been showing Franky enough love, or maybe […]

30/06/2019 Today we travelled to Manning Gorge, this sees us going back south for about 20 kms meeting back up with GRR and then travelling 90 kms east to Mt Barnett Road House, then 7 kms north to Manning Gorge. Along the way we stopped at Galvans Gorge which is just a short 1 km […]

29/06/2016 This is our first morning waking up in the tent for this trip, we are a bit rusty on how everything fits into Frank, it is like a game of tetris, everything must go in its spot otherwise it just doesn’t fit. Today we plan to drive to Silent Grove Camp Ground, to get […]

28/06/2019 Our first stop for the day is at Tunnel Creek, this is an awesome cave / tunnel system that goes through the base of a mountain with water flowing throughout. A torch and shorts that can get wet are essential as the tunnel is pitch black and you need to walk through thigh deep […]

28/06/2019 Happy Birthday for Sandy. We spent yesterday afternoon, evening, night, emptying all the crap that we store in Frank and replacing it with other stuff that we will need to live out of Frank for the next 2- 3 weeks. The bitumen road stops close to here in the unsealed corrugated Gibb River Road […]

25/06/2019 We finally make it to Broome, in our minds it has become a mini destination. We checked in to Cable Beach Caravan Park, went straight to a cafe on the beach and settled in for the afternoon, it was very different to what we have been doing, nice to be spoiled. Whilst here we […]
