Carnarvon Gorge
We were lucky enough to be able to take a week off work between Anzac day and Labour Day and we decided to go check out Carnarvon National Park. Andrew and I had been there, very briefly about 10 years ago but we never really got a chance to check it all out properly. I […]
Darlington Park
It feels like it has been forever since we had an opportunity to get away camping for the weekend so we were both chomping at the bit to get going on Friday afternoon. We were on the road by just after 5pm and arrived at Darlington Park about an hour later. How great to find […]
Waterfall Creek Reserve {Campsite Review}
We were so excited when the day finally arrived to pick up our new camper trailer. After months of comparing, choosing and waiting we rocked up at the warehouse, hooked up the trailer…. and… didn’t drive off. Nope, in our typical style something always has to go wrong and on this occasion it was faulty […]

I […]

Mars Bars Pikelets
Just over a week ago, we jumped out of bed at daybreak, bundled the dog into the car, attached the camper trailer and took off up the coast for a week of sun, swimming, fishing and relaxing… or so we thought! Little did we know that Cyclone Marcia was going to cut our trip in […]

Coconut Belle Slice
Wow, so I really didn’t know where to start with this post. A month away on holidays has relaxed my brain to the point where it is now not cooperating (don’t ask how long it took me to get this far). It was a really, really good holiday. Not relaxing in the usual sense, since […]
