Of course Murphy's law a morning where your traveling the boys sleep in. We packed up and left Mt Isa. We didn't really have a plan of where we were heading. We stopped in Richmond for lunch and after we had left town I was cranky that I hadn't done the dinosaur thing with the kids as upon reading the reviews it sounded great. Oh well next trip ha ha :) We decided to keep driving through to Bivouac Junction just the other side of Charters Towers and have our last...

Wow reality is starting to kick in that the best of the trip is now over and we are making our way home :( We got up at 3 this morning for an early get away so the Brady's could get a bit of heat relief without their aircon working. Today we are back in Queensland and have made it to Mt Isa. Called up an old work mate Donna Hamilton and we ended up at their place for the arvo for drinks, nibbles, a swim and a good catch up. Ben and Sean both loved catching up a...

We arrived into Katherine and headed to the visitor centre to suss out there and Mataranka. The lady ruled out Katherine gorge for us with the kids and it's getting to hot now for walks. We decided to have lunch at the golf club and then head off to Mataranka for the night. We ended up staying at the caravan park closest to Bitter Springs. After set up and a few drinks easy snags in bread it was for tea :) The kids are starting to sleep in for longer in the morni...

Garry and I had a nice early start up at 4.30am and we drove into Kununurra. Kylie and Shaun did us the biggest favour by looking after all 3 of our boys. I did feel a little sick leaving them at camp this morning. At 6 am us and an Irish couple took off with Kimberley Air on a model Cessna 210 a very small plane. Would have loved to do the float plane but that finished at the end of September. We flew over the Diversion Dam at Kununurra, Lake Argyle, The Bungl...

A nice cruisy kick back morning with a bit more journal writing for Ben. We all enjoyed a nice swim in the pool but it was definitely a bit cooler than the day before as the sun hadn't appeared yet. We enjoyed some hot chip sangas for lunch and then the guys took the kids fishing for the whole afternoon. It was awesome as Kylie and I for once did nothing else but sit on our butts and drink a heap of a Malibu's as the sun came out. Zane was very kind to me and h...
