Hi you two, just to say how much I like ur blocks, keep up the good work ! Been to aussi land 32yrs and 21 yrs ago , to NSW and NT , and still looking at it as a great time of my life, 4 sure will return and try 2 make a trip like yours, take care and enjoy! Rob from Holland

Great Photos
Your travel post is indeed worth reading. I love your photos. You have some great talent here. Good luck on all your future travels and I hope you'll share them the same way here. Happy Anniversary to your Mum and Dad! By the way, do you know that you can earn by travelling? I found a new social networking community that is surely exciting to join. I hope you'll be interested too. Have a blessed day!

You couldn't have done any more
I'm crying with you Caroline, that's such a shame for the poor Kooki. They're so beautiful but he didn't look well at all did he. We came across a Wallaby on our way into Edith Falls that had obviously been hit by a car but was still alive and dragging itself away from the road. Sadly because it was outside the national park the rangers felt there was nothing they could do and as we weren't near a wildlife rescue place we too had to leave it. :-( PS ironically on our blog for yesterday you'll see a parrot in a slightly worse state than the kooki, there was definately nothing we could do for it! Take care love and hugs from both of us x x x

On the Road
Glad to see you are on the road again. I missed all of the adventures while you were on the move. Cairns and surrounds were interesting, but you are now in unknown territory to us. Take care and ENJOY.

Shelburne Bay
Did a bit of googling and think once the National Parks took control they have closed the road that previously ran through the pastoral lease. Probably do not have funds to maintain a non gazetted road. I read of one trip by the geographic society that described their trip as going along a disuded road then completing the journey on quad bikes. Oh well, maybe one day. A few places like that in the Far North, just cannot get to some places without a chopper! Not sure if you have found exploreoz webiste but can be good resource for your type of travelling. Cheers and happy travels. Jane - ps if stuck for a little outing the Goldsborough Valley and the road to the very end is nice, Ross and Locke (though imagine covered in dust atm)

The whole fairytale ending
You'll be back on the road in no time at all and there is no better adventure than one which will take you to the 'top of the world'! We've heard some great stories from people who have done it in the last two months, they had a great time what with walking all the river crossings and trips into the different communities up there. It's one of those seeing is believing trips and it's one which we will most definately be back to undertake in a couple of years. Safe travels to all of you from all of us x x

Been trying to find out how you can access Shelburne Bay sand dunes in Cape York. If you figure it out lets us know! Nice garden goanna by the way :)

Don't give up
on finding Sydney with a Y from Cairns' relatives, he's looking forward to news!!! We're back in Katherine now and there's definately no Cassowaries here!! love from the Wallaby Wanderers and the crew x x

Tia & Canada
I am sure that Tia and her partner have researched their trip to Canada. But you might want to remind her that she will be heading into winter where temperatures can be anywhere from minus 10 to minus 30C. I won't even mention the possibility of -40C. Oops, I did mention it!!!! We also tend to still use pounds and inches for measurements. Although litres and Kilometres for petrol (gas/gasoline here) and highway 'mileage'. Never figured out if kilometreage would replace mileage. Take care

The Didjeribone
The Original and the best Sliding Didjeridu on the planet... wouldn't play anything else on stage!!!

We googled your blog title..
... but it didn't come up on page one for us but we've hit it twice anyway! We googled our 'National Geographic Boobs' titled blog just out of interest and that does come up on Google's page one and it is our biggest hitter so far! Maybe it is 'all in a name'?! love from all at the WW's camp!
