20200620 Qld The Road to Noccundre

20200620 The outback roads are long and narrow as we check for truck over each bend but so far we have only passed one car on the Nockatunga Warry Warry Gate Road and we are pleasantly surprised how smooth the roads are.

The sign says it all, and stay out, we are loving the boarders being closed, there's no one in the free camps and wood is plentiful.

On our way to Noccundra when we came across this bull wandering aimlessly across the road and he’s certainly in no hurry.

The he stops checking us out, Des sure isn’t getting out to move him on as he blasts his horn.

Then off he goes with his frisky sons in toe.

 One of many wild flowers in outback Queensland, rather pretty I thought.

Our camp for the night in the middle of nowhere and not a sole in sight.

 
              

This is what happens when you’ve been in lock down for too long and then you are finally free, I'm Free, I'm Free.

Sitting outside with the flies while having a wine and taking in the view.

Check out the outback sunset, how blessed are we.

The long straight road to Noccundra

Wild horses in the outback, I don’t know where they get there food from but they sure look healthy.

20250406 What an amazing experience, we are so proud of our little man Hamish after being excepted to be part of a high level U12 squad to travel to Spain to participate in the MICFootball Tournament. (Costa Brava, Barcelona). MICFootball is one of the most prestigious youth football tournaments in the world that’s been running for over 20 years. Many of the highest quality and well known clubs from around the world participate in this tournament every year. Teams such as FC Barcelona, Real Madrid, Liverpool FC and Bayern Munich just to name a few and now that day has finally arrived and we are all very excited. Des prepared us  a late lunch,  his famous prawn cutlets that we pigged out on before heading to the airport, we had a clear run all the way and arrived in ample time so after our goodbyes we watched as Des drove off until he returns in three weeks to pick us up. Des drops us off and with our suit case in tow we head inside to check in our luggage, let the fun begin. F...

20240911 NSW Moonbi Lookout to Walcha, Aratula to Home

Image
20240911 On our way towards Tamworth, we heard there rain heading our way so our aim is to park at the lookout in Moonbi that has solid ground. The wood has been stripped around the camp site so I walked deeper into the bush and returned with a bag, there’s no stopping me when it comes to my fires. Des prepared dinner while I set up the fire, we had dinner then sat around my nice fire while sitting under the nights stars and enjoying a few ales. We had a new camper turn up today and camped just in front of us with his little Jack Russell Dog who came for a visit and took a liking to Des. The Moonbi Lookout, Perched on a huge granite outcrop at an elevation of 754m (2,473ft) above the sea level. The View overlooking the valley below, stunning. The Moonbi Lookout is off the New England highway then follow the Lookout Road to the car park at the top where there is plenty of room for overnight parking. When camping at the lookout follow the track and check out the old stone built amenities...

20250408 Spain Madrid 3

Image
20250408 It’s still the same day as we continue our walk along the streets of Madrid, the main homes are units, mainly because i t has almost 3.5 million  inhabitants and a metropolitan area  population of approximately 7 million. Madrid  began in the 9th century with the founding of a fortress named "Mayrit" by the Emir Muhammad of Córdoba, the city flourished under Arab rule but was later reconquered by Christians when it became part of the Kingdom of Castile. In 1561, Madrid was officially made the capital of Spain by King Philip III. C heck out these buildings they are so beautiful and unique and I did notice there are no cloths lines hanging outside, but don’t be deceived there’s a lot of little nooks and crannies hidden out the back of these buildings. Sharyn and Hamish were checking out another sports store when I noticed a heap of people outside of this restaurant, being me I went to investigate only to find out it’s the oldest restaurant in the world, dating back...
