Leaving the cool mountain air of the New England Tableland behind us, it was time to continue south and head down off the highlands to Australia’s country music capital – Tamworth. I personally have no great interest in country music, but since we had to pass through this country city anyway, I thought it would [...]
We had spent the morning exploring the historic town of Glen Innes on the New England Tableland of New South Wales, Australia. It was a chilly morning as we walked around, so I was quite happy to enjoy the warmth of our camper van as we continued to drive south to Uralla, our destination for [...]
From high up on the New England Tableland in Australia, we drove down the range from Uralla towards Tamworth and stopped at Moonbi Lookout for a rest and to enjoy the view. I took this panorama from the top of a huge granite rock which acts as the lookout. You can view the New England [...]
As we made our way towards Uralla after stopping for the night at Bluff Rock, we passed through the country town of Glen Innes, high up on the New England Tableland of New South Wales. As soon as we entered the town, I noticed that there were a lot of beautiful old houses and buildings [...]
We set off on the first day of our Great Australian Road Trip with the intention of making it to Uralla, a town just south of Armidale in New South Wales. As it turned out, with the mucking around that we did before hand and much of the road being severely pot holed, there was [...]

While camping at Flanagan Reserve in South East Queensland, Australia, we managed to enjoy at least a few hours of beautiful sunshine. It turned out that we weren't the only ones who were over the wet weather as several large Goannas came out to wonder through our camp and enjoy the warm heat of the [...]
Flanagan Reserve is a lovely camping ground located on the banks of the upper Logan River near Mount Barney in South East Queensland, Australia. We recently stayed here for a couple of days and camped right on the river bank where we had great river views and hardly any sounds apart from the rushing water [...]
After all of the rain and flooding that we had here in Queensland, Australia, we were desperate for some sunshine. Although the rain wasn't really going anywhere, it had eased off enough to only the occasional shower, so we decided to head up to Rainbow Beach for a couple of days with the hope that [...]
Since the recent storms and flooding, the weather has been fairly nice here in Canungra, Australia. The last few nights have been almost cloudless, and with that we have been treated to these amazing starry nights here at the showgrounds. It's amazing how many more stars you can see when you are away from all [...]
