April 3rd Today was dedicated to fitting the roof top tent and heading for Springbrook (If that was at all possible). We fitted the rooftop tent to the car. Then we made, yet another, attempt to get to Springbrook National Park. We made it all the way down the freeway, into the National Park and just as we thought everything was OK we saw a road closure ahead of us, separating us from the designated camp site. There is only one road in and out. Soooooo we en...

So once we left Texas we headed straight to Brisbane to collect the rooftop tent….which is awesome…takes 2 seconds to set up!! We loaded it up and headed south for Springbrook National Park (2 hr drive)…….HOWEVER, we couldn't get there because the direction the GPS lady told us to go had road closures everywhere from Cyclone Debbie. So after ages of doubling back and doubling back and, yet again, doubling back we just picked a spot close by to camp as it...

Day 116 - Bye Bye Texas So it is coming to the end of our time in Texas, we've decided to hit the dusty trail again. We'll be leaving Texas on 2nd of April and heading towards the coast.

We had some goodbye drinks with friends last night and they took us out pig hunting which was fun. We didn't actually catch a pig but,...

Day 56 - Flew to Cairns We drove to Brisbane from Texas (3.5 hrs) then got the 9:30pm flight to Cairns (2 hrs). We were heading to Cairns to surprise a mate for her 30th Birthday. She was heading to Cairns from Perth to meet up with her sister and had no idea that we were heading there as well. It was an awesome surprise!! She said she thought she was seeing things when she saw us standing in her sister's house ahaha. We all went wake boarding on one of the days...

Day 32 - 47 Work, work and more work. We have just been lending a hand wherever they need us around the feedlot. We are mostly in the induction shed, where you process all the new cattle (tagging, vaccines etc). We help vet crew treating the sick cattle…this can be a bit dangerous when you are pushing up because the sick cattle are quite temperamental. Kuba went out on one of the days to help bike crew with some mustering which he said was fun but really du...
