It’s finally here! This week we reveal our travel plans for Season 3……we’re headed north up to the Tropic of Capricorn (Circle of Latitude) and are going to spend the next 3-4 months exploring everything North Queensland has to offer! The Tropics, the Great Barrier Reef, the Tablelands, Cape York Peninsula, the Savannah Way, the Matilda Way and so much more…..including dinosaurs and Outback Queensland! But first we say goodbye to the Gold Coast and travel up to the Sunshine Coast, spending a few nights at the family friendly, fun filled Rivershore Resort before heading further north to the Fraser Coast. Paul takes us through his must have travel items stored in the back of the Hilux, and Katie shares her top tips for road trip planning! We hope you and your family are safe and well, take care, and stay happy, healthy and hopeful! Please give us a like and subscribe to our channel!

This could be one of the best weeks we’ve had on the road so far! After a recommendation from some new friends, we make a last minute booking at Trinity Islands on the Fraser Coast’s beautiful Burrum River, and enjoy a week like never before! This unique park offers guests all the best parts about free camping in an incredible environment, with the added benefits of security, amenities and some of the friendliest faces you’ll meet. We make the most of the experience by cooking outside on the Weber, sitting around the campfire, toasting marshmallows with Jasper and star gazing at the amazing night time skies. Paul whips up a delicious French Toast on the Weber for breakfast and also installs the B.E.S.T Water Filter on the van, and Katie (finally) gets behind the wheel towing the van.

Well this was certainly a stressful and emotionally fuelled week! After enjoying some family fun at Cooloola Berries on the Fraser Coast, experiencing their famous Paella in the Paddock, we have an unexpected turn of events that leaves our Tropical North Queensland plans in disarray.

After the dramas of last week with Paul’s broken ankle, this week we find ourselves full of gratitude! Paul gets the all clear from his doctor that he is healing well and fit for travel, and our good friends at Apollo come to the rescue with a fantastic surprise that gets us back on the road bound for the Tropic of Capricorn! Katie continues her sink or swim initiation behind the steering wheel as we travel over 700km to the Capricorn Region, and set up base camp at the beautiful Ferns Hideaway Wilderness Resort, set on 100 acres of lush rainforest and Australian bush within the surrounds of Byfield National Park. We stop in for a visit at the famous Nob Creek Pottery, and fall in love with the fantastic food, entertainment and friendly faces of Ferns!

This week we continue our stay at Ferns Hideaway Wilderness Resort in Byfield, enjoying a special Christmas in July celebration with Paul’s younger brother Jef, who also shows us how to cook damper on a stick over the campfire. Then we swap the rainforest for the reef and head out to the southern Great Barrier Reef for 4 incredible nights on spectacular Pumpkin Island. Made famous by the XXXX Island beer commercials, Pumpkin Island is nestled in the Keppel group of islands, and is located 14 kilometres off the coast of Yeppoon. If you are dreaming about an island getaway, this is the episode for you! We hope you and your family are safe and well, take care, and stay happy, healthy and hopeful!

After 11 months full time on the road in our 23ft Coromal Caravan, and the last 3 weeks in our Apollo Motorhome rental, we wanted to share our thoughts on the pros and cons, our likes and dislikes in this Motorhome VS Caravan face off. This week we discuss the 6 main categories for consideration when choosing an RV to suit your needs including ease of driving, safety and security, costs and repairs. If you are currently in the market for an RV, not sure which vehicle is for you, or ready to change your existing rig, this episode will give you plenty of food for thought when choosing between a motorhome or caravan.

This week we continue our exploration of the Capricorn Region with a visit to the historic mining town Mount Morgan. Located 40 minutes west of Rockhampton, Mount Morgan makes a great half day trip for the entire family. From the suspension bridge to their historic railway museum, Jasper had a ball discovering this quaint country town. Next we swap the motorhome for a few nights glamping in paradise on pristine Great Keppel Island, located on Queensland’s Southern Great Barrier Reef. With its crystal clear turquoise waters, 17 secluded white squelchy sand beaches and an abundance of wildlife, no visit to the Capricorn Region is complete without a trip to Great Keppel Island. We stayed at Geoff Mercer’s Holiday Village, budget boutique accommodation to suit every type of traveller, and a fantastic base to immerse yourself in the treasures of Great Keppel Island. https://gkiholidayvillage.com.au We hope you and your family are safe and well, take care, and stay happy, healthy and hopeful!
