Big Lap part 5 – what we forgot to tell you…

If you’ve been following our socials, you’ll know about our NSW South Coast roadtrip into East Gippsland. This week, we’re in the Victorian High Country and loving it! Like our swim in the Snowy River at McKillops Bridge! Meanwhile, I had promised to tell you about our horror happening at Elephant Cove, latest apps and share info on the states we didn’t visit on our first ever lap. Winner Announcement Congratulations to Bev B. from Hervey Bay, QLD who won our $20,000 Kimberley Holiday Giveaway! Thanks to everyone who entered.

Nullarbor trip
Camping

Crossing the Nullarbor – our adventure from Western Australia into South Australia

On the end of our Big Lap, on limited time, we traversed The Nullarbor in two days. Kids were due back at school, we had businesses to run but were so keen to experience this famed road trip. We left Esperance and the beauty of Cape Le Grand National Park, through Grass Patch and the heart of Mallee Country. The Nullarbor Plain begins in Norseman, Western Australia – we saw camels here, which was pretty cool. “The Nullarbor” is an 1100km route. Here’s where we stopped: Balladonia was a lunch stop with a pretty multicoloured picket fenced playground. Oh, we were so

Bucket List

A must do: The Granite Skywalk, Castle Rock, Western Australia

This #graniteskywalk at Castle Rock near Albany Western Australia is a Definite MUST DO. This is absolutely the best image I have seen of this adventure. It really is as cool as it looks!

Budget Campsite

Budget and views: Camp at Murphys Haystacks, South Australia

The Eyre Peninsula in South Australia really is a wonderland to discover. As we drove south from Streaky Bay, we dropped in to check out Murphy’s Haystacks, listed as a budget campground in our book! These amazing rock formations are on a farm – in a paddock! There is a picnic area and toilet, and the site is not far from the highway. The camp area is pet friendly, has 24 hours maximum stay for RVs and Big Rigs. There is a small fee, mobile coverage, shade, limited level spots, but it is so unique, we’ve given it our CAMPS tick of approval! It is

Visit Port Neill on the Eyre Peninsula, South Australia

CAMPS Ambassadors Manda and Daniel loved visiting the jetty and town of Port Neill so much, they returned to stay at the Port Neill Caravan Park. As you can see, it has location plus! Said Manda: “We just chilled out at the jetty and playground and caught up on the washing. You know all the fun jobs! “It’s a great dog friendly, wonderfully located and friendly caravan park. It had a takeaway kiosk too, which is always dangerous.” “Just a short walk to two beaches too!” Manda added. What to see and do The travelling family recommend: “The picnic area
