20120227 VIC Victoria Boarder Cann River

20120227 Yeaaa were in Victoria and parked up on Cann River in a caravan park $10 without power.  We noticed heaps of bikes coming into Victoria and at Cann River Service Station.  We had to walk to the pub to book into the park, so we had a couple of beers when we meet had some guys returning home from Philip Island, now we know why all the bikes.  Watched Julia Gillard on the news boosting about her win over Kevin Rudd 71 to 31 (poor Ruddy baby). 

Des's Bro's
We put up the awning to cooked outside then it started raining and the wind picked so down comes the awning.  Theirs that sound of the Bell Birds again, do you think we could see them, not on your life but you could certainly here them.  The one good think about these parks are the nice hot shower and I can finally wash my hair.

Cann River

20120228 We woke to another miserable day so we decided to take advantage of the facility's, Des moved the van and stole some free power while I did some washing, arr bonus theirs a power point so I can recharge my laptop and update my blog while waiting for the washing. 

We departed Cann River to visit Bemm River at Marlo for some fishing, apparently you can catch lots of Flat head & bream, that right you have to obtain a license for social fishing (what a crock of shit) besides, it's cold, windy and raining, bloody Victoria. 

The road to Marlo on Bemm River was very pretty a rain Forest look and the majority of the road was a reddish color.

The tine town of Marlo a great fishing spot if you have a boat, which we don't.









I wonder what the Greene's think of this,
do you get the feeling this area has a problem
with Feral Dogs and Foxes.


Just an old Jetty that took my fancy but there were heaps of fish skeletons everywhere so that could be proof that there are fish here.


Nop not staying here Lake Entrance looks good though.
Location: Cann River VIC 3890, Australia

20150809 WA Moora, New Norcia, Bindoon

Image
20150809  The town of Moora came from the Aboriginal name 'Moora' which means blowfly and is situated in one of the most interesting wildflower areas of the state and is the largest town between Geraldton and Perth, well! all I can say is, all the other towns must be bloody small.  The rolling hills on the way to Moora are a blaze with the vivid yellow flowers of canola and are just breath taken and apparently it smells like cabbage. Canola is grown for its seed which is crushed for the oil used in margarine, cooking oil, and a few more. The properties of the oil fits with the current view that human health is better served by increasing the intake of mono and poly unsaturated fats in place of saturated fats The Drovers Inn was built in 1909 and stands on the intersection of the town. The historical buildings are what gives this town it's charm. The New Norcia Benedictine Community is the official title of the group of Roman Catholic monks w...

20240608 Qld Miara, Miriam Vale to Turkey Beach Dick’s

Image
20240608  We arrived at Tony’s house and because his land is uneven Will, his neighbour was kind enough to let us park on his nice lawn. Des always put a jack under the steps for extra support when Tony yelled out, is that so Leonie doesn’t break the steps, No I said it’s in case you want to come in, Ha!Ha got ya.  I collecting wood from down the back while the boys did nothing apart from bending their elbows drinking beer and  because the guys were too lazy, leave it up to the only female. 50 Cans per shelf Tony recons and I’m sure he would know, he fills it every day.😁 So our Tony feed the Kookaburras with a special dog food that’s good for them and his theory is they keep the snakes away. We had a funny night while sitting around the fire that I built, and the conversation about the people we have all known while downing a few too many beers. Will worked with Dick and knew his brother who was killed in a tragic Crain accident in Darwin many years ago, we certainly liv...

20240520 NSW Deepwater to Coolatai

Image
20240520 So here we are once again back in Deepwater and parked in our old spot, how special it is to be able to connect to power, it’s like luxury especially when you’re travelling. Later in the afternoon Chris, a guy we meet last time we were here came to say Hi, then we joined him in the bar for a few ales with more of the locals. 20240521 We had the heater going all night and the van in the morning is still bloody freezing, let’s travel in winter he says, it’ll be great he says, ya sure if you like freezing all night. Des goes outside to wash up and what he thought was a dish left behind turned out to be his frozen dish cloth, I told you it was cold.🥶  We left the Longhorn and headed back to the Common Campground for a few days, we have become very fond of the spot, it’s so peaceful and secluded and has heaps of wood. We had a great few days enjoying our surroundings with no one in site, just the occasional car passing by and the only evidence is the dust off the dirt road. No...
