Point Cartwright Lighthouse📍QLD
Living on the Sunshine Coast, you’re truly blessed with endless choices for beach towns and breathtaking scenic views! It’s been an absolute pleasure living up this way over the past few month’s. Soon to have a sea change of scenery & mix up our surroundings 🤘🏼
Today’s highlight: Point Cartwright! It’s the perfect spot to dive into a refreshing swim and explore around the historic lighthouse. Not to mention all the cafes & bars located in the area also to experience.
Fun Fact: The Point Cartwright Lighthouse has been a guiding light for ships entering Moreton Bay since 1897. Its technology has evolved incredibly from the original oil lamp and reflector of the past century.

Adventure Through the Vines at Lanzerac Winery
Wine lovers, take note! Stellenbosch, a mere 40 minutes from Cape Town, is a haven of vineyards waiting to be explored. Our quest for the best led us to the renowned Lanzerac Wine Estate
Another location, another divine wine discovered, complete with a scrumptious platter to balance the sips and keep our heads clear.
The delights didn't stop at the tasting room. Inside, a deli filled with gourmet treasures beckoned, and the chance to wander through the wine cellar was an unexpected journey into the heart of Lanzerac's magic.
For those wandering near Cape Town with a taste for the finer things, Stellenbosch is your playground, and Lanzerac, a must-visit landmark.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to everyone who attended the Gootchie Creek Retreat Campout. We had an amazing time catching up with familiar faces and forging new friendships.
The convoy to Theebine Hotel was truly incredible, as always. Witnessing that many cars together was a fantastic experience. To be precise, we had a convoy of 24 cars! A massive shout out to the hotel for hosting us and providing a great feast for the crew. They handled everything with style and without any issues. If you haven't been there yet, Theebine Hotel is definitely a top pub to check out!
We would like to express our deep gratitude to Gootchie Creek Escape for the breathtaking location and for assisting us in organizing this memorable Campout. They supplied us with an abundance of timber for the largest fires we have ever had. They also arranged rides for the kids to feed the cows and even organized a treasure hunt!
A special thank you goes out to the bands, Darcy Kate & Cora and Lochie who joined us in the evening around the fire and brought everyone together with their incredible music. Live music is an essential part of the Campout experience!
Lastly, but certainly not least, we want to thank all of you legends who showed up. Your support means the world to us, and it's truly amazing to be part of such a fantastic community of like-minded people. This event is a remarkable way to connect and meet new individuals.
The best part is that we have decided to continue hosting future Campouts going forward! We don't want this to end, and we eagerly anticipate organizing more events in the southeast Queensland area. So stay tuned for upcoming announcements!
Thank you all once again for your participation and let's keep the spirit of this event alive!
Bogan Weir📍NSW
This location was a highly recommended one from our amazing followers on the socials. After putting out the word for some killer campsites, this was definitely a very popular one.
I can certainly see why it’s so loved in the area, the large body of water is very appealing when the days are hot but also the large open areas to camp is a winner.
The kids enjoyed blowing up the floaty’s and spending a lot of time swimming in the weir. The site isn’t far from the town of Peak Hill if you needed any supplies, plus if your looking for anything to do in town they have a large open cut mine that you can explore.

Nyngan Weir Bogan River📍NSW
After dropping Sian off to the airport, the kids & I decided to go west and checkout some towns & see what we could find.
We stumbled across this sweet free camp by the water just 5mins outside of Nyngan. It was a very hot day when we arrived so to have the water at our doorstep was very inviting. The kids & I made the absolute most of it lol
Toilet facility & bins located at the camp made for a nice little stop. We had a great time fishing and relaxing by the water. If your looking a stopping in the area, this is definitely a great camp.

“The Dish” CSIRO Observatory📍NSW
If your travelling through the Parkes region we would suggest putting the visitors centre on the list as they have a lot of great history and a dedicated Elvis museum.
Also in the area is “The Dish” CSIRO Observatory, which was actually a lot of fun & interesting not only for us but the kids too. They had a lot of fun interacting with all the toys and learning some fun facts.
They have a cafe on site with a playground for the kids. It’s not something you have the opportunity to see up close, it’s such a huge satellite in person but we really enjoyed it. Definitely worth throwing on the list.

The ultimate tourer 🤘🏼 beast off-road & on!
Hassans Walks lookout📍NSW
If your visiting the Lithgow area & enjoy a drive to see a great vantage point of the beautiful landscapes in the region, we would suggest Hassan’s Walls Lookout.
Only 10mins out of town,,you’ll find a dirt road that will take you 1,100m above sea level to the lookout.
There is a large walking platform that will take you right out and give you a stunning view of the landscape. Hot tip: before you walk out onto the platform, if you look to your right you’ll see a small dirt walking track behind the gardens and picnic tables. Follow it and thank us later 😉

Bendeela Camping Reserve📍NSW
We finally found a location that has a large number of friendly wombats! It’s been a struggle for us to find a wombat in the wild (that’s not roadkill) so after this recommendation we were quick to visit.
Located 10mins outside of Kangaroo Valley you’ll find this incredible spot. It’s owned by NSW Water and they have space available for people to come camp in huge numbers. With a capacity of 1000 people, it’s a popular spot by the river with large open grass fields to pull up on.
The huge highlight of this spot isn’t the large open areas to camp but the wildlife that calls this place home. During the day you’ll have kangaroos & kookaburras kicking around but then of an evening you’ll have the pleasure of seeing owls & wombats.
You’re guaranteed to see multiple wombats of a night, plus feeling them rub against the stabilizer legs of the caravan while you sleep! 😂 The best part for the kids was packing torches and going exploring after dinner on sunset. The wombats really are amazing to watch as they walk around the camp grounds and so friendly, letting you get quite close for a good look at them.
Fees:
$6 booking fee
Can stay up to 7nights

Campout Wee Jasper📍NSW
Wow! What a huge event 🤯
200 people, 100 caravans …. Insane turnout!
We want to thank everyone that was a part of this weekend, we had the best time making memories & meeting new people.
The convoy to Tumut River Brewing was definitely a highlight, around 45+ cars took part in the drive to the brewery where we drank cold beers & smashed delicious pizzas.
Entertaining games for kids & adults to participate in eg. what’s the time mr wolf, wrap slap & tent building competitions. Always a great laugh watching everyone get involved 😂
Huge thanks to ReVibe the live band we had play for us on the Saturday afternoon, we had a lot of you legends getting up & enjoying a dance while others enjoyed a few cold beverages & nibbles.
These are just a few standout moments that was shared over the event, we are absolutely blown away by the support from everyone. This wouldn’t be a thing without you legends 🥰 we love bringing people together & creating a community of like minded people.
Make sure you join our camp out crew page to stay up to date with future event’s & details.

Ettamogah Pub📍NSW
We have made it into NSW and our first stop was the Ettamogah Pub. 🍻 It’s definitely a great location for an iconic photo plus it was coming on lunch time when we arrived so we decided to have a look around & stay for a bite to eat.
The place was filled with a ton of funny/quirky sayings & interesting builds with plenty of photo opportunities for the kids. The building itself was unfortunately closed which was a shame. It actually seemed like most of the place was unavailable, unsure why? Regardless, we can confirm that the food was great in the main pub restaurant.
Hot tip: If your stopping over, they have a large open green grassed camping area out the back for a small fee spent in the restaurant.

North Eastern Hotel📍VIC
It was hard for us to pass up a good pub feed on moving day, with a great selection of beers on tap & tasty food.
The “Northo” is located in Benalla VIC and what a great little pub it was! After recently being taken over by new owners, they have big plans for the place.
One of the joys of small towns is you find some of the best pubs and pub meals👌🏼 this is one of those pubs.

The high country roads can be so unforgiving with a steep cliff next to you on most roads and tight blind corners through many of the ranges.
We were only travelling at 26km/h uphill as we saw the truck and even then, we still needed to lock the brakes up to stop safely. The truck could not of made the corner without crossing the lines but we had no notice whatsoever because the corner was blind.
Thankfully nothing went wrong, but it's a prime example of why you must be vigilant and responsible when towing a caravan at all times. This could have been a tragedy in the making.
What close calls have you had while towing a caravan? Stay safe legends 🤘🏻

Absolutely loving our setup, we can take on just about anything. Looking forward to pushing the limits this year & putting this combination to the test.
Our latest addition to the van has been a new set of Yokohama G016 X-AT to match the car. We are huge fans of the tires & highly rate them to tackle anything we throw their way.
Epic adventures ahead 🤟🏼

2022 has been a great year filled with many kilometers travelled, passing through 4 states. Shared with plenty of amazing people along the way. We upgraded the van & saw parts of Oz that have been on our bucket list since we started.
We want to thank everyone that’s been apart of our journey & who has supported us 🥰 you guys mean the world to us. Hope you all had a incredible Christmas & New Years!
We have big plans for the new year! We can’t wait to share them with you 🤟🏼

Snow Licola📍VIC
Can you believe it! We found snow again, this Victorian weather is just insane 🤯 every local we speak to says the same thing, this isn’t normal!
I must admit, we did plan to head south for the summer season hoping for some warm sunny conditions but Mother Nature has other plans.
Regardless having this experience in Australia with the kids has been the best surprise, it’s definitely a moment we will treasure forever!
Location 30mins east of Liciola VIC up in the hills📍
Ps. Something extraordinary happened this day
