Still Cruising and Loving it

Hi Guys, well we are still cruising along and have just been through some remote places, as well as some wonderful scenic landscapes from the coastal regions of Nth Queensland to the dusty and bare plains of the outback West to the NT.

Along the way we free camped most of the time where reception of any sorts was just not happening, anyway we are about 15 Kilometers Nth of Katherine and will head into the Darwin region by weeks end.

Hear are a few pics from the Coast at Whithaven Beach to the Outback of Nth West Queensland, the Big Rigs, and some random shots of just fun stuff.

Leon and Alice

Thanks for those photos Leon and especially the one of your little black poodle. It so brings back memories of our two poodles who we lost last year (both from old age and sicknesses). Keep enjoying your trip. We are heading off in our van for about six weeks and hoping to get to far north Queensland so might see you on the road somewhere. Cheers

Thanks Guys, didn't see and Bats Liz, but we were a few k's out of Katherine, and we left there today and staying a few days at Pussy Cat Flats, near Pine Creek, about 200 clicks out of Darwin.
Friday morning we leave here and rock up at our old camp on Robbie Robbins Reserve, and settle into NT life for a few months, looking forward to it, there is so much to do in the Top End.

Leon
