Day 78 We bust through the doors of the Woolworths like some cowboys with smoke billowing and people running to hide… well not quite more like we enter quietly, I pretend to have magic and get the doors to open… sigh.. one day. LOL. We restock well this time, eggs, steak and potatoes. Woot woot were eating good the next few days. But for now we are off and running towards the start of the Holland track, but first of course we get gas at a steal of a deal, only 1.30/L with food fuel and ice we set out. The road is a nice wide gravel road till the start of the track and we motor about 70km form town and pull off on a track and hide in the bushes about 1km from the ... read more

Day 76 Kalgoorlie is in site as we plow down the muddy roads, the truck is caked in mud I cant see out the side windows.. the mirrors are coated.. the koala is soaked and not looking to impressed.. but that’s just to bad for the best seat in the house… I find a steep hill and side track a bit for a climb but decide to turn around about ¾ the way up since the next chunk was a rough stair case of rocks and we didn’t feel like dropping the pressure in the tires. About another 15km down the road I spot a lizard, don’t know what kind. But he was pretty big and I almost ran him over, he was not to impressed. As he opened his mouth the threaten me when I ... read more

Day 74 Lets here it for car 79 from laverton… that’s right abandoned car 79 in a range of 150km… we have seen around 350 of them and countless numbers of tires… Today not much happened, we pushed another 250 km today to make the total in this tank 782km and consumed 100l for around 12-13l/100km which we are happy with. We treat the truck to a tire rotation and a few little repairs that night. Hans and Anneke are impressed with our ability to wrench and common sense and state that they are not surprised to see us out here and even tell us of a few more remote tracks we have to check out. Followed by mentioning that they would not tell us about them if we were not competent so this makes me ... read more

Day 72 The permits are good to go for these few days so we move out. We decide due to strong winds not to climb uluru and move straight to the olgas, where we enjoyed a 7.4km walk in the sun, if you can call it enjoyable. Lol. Its hot out, but we have camel packs and always have an emergency 600ml bottle on hand. Some people are out here with no water… they are insane. We finish the walk with the black flies hot on our tails… they never leave you alone. We hop back in the truck and start into aboriginal land and push our way to docker river a small community where camping is permitted. Along the way after a teeth jarring drive we stop at the lesseter cave, where an early explorer ... read more

Day 70 Uluru bound today peeps, we stop about 20km out of the park and setup a bush camp. Screw resort prices. Lol. We can go with out a toilet. We have a shovel. LOL. But we do eventually head to the rock and buy permits. I thought it was 25 per vehicle but its actually p/p oh well. Its good for 3 days. We drive a short distance and get out for a small walk to look around. A stunning place. It looks amazing under the blaring hot sun. we head back to camp and I set of across the dunes for sunset photos from camp. Yupp free camp with a view. Life is good. ... read more
