Happily he’s back in the saddle and champing at the bit to get down to the icy south. Me thr3!!
We're also having fun planning another trip to the outback to track some of Australia's iconic roads - got to travel more before we get beyond attempting the challenging driving that some of those 'roads' can present.
That’s a huge limestone ridge beside us - an old reef?
The Tuwakam Track for instance. A 20 km track through the bush of the Judbarra National Park,NT. We drove it in 2017 and it took us almost 3 hours (without the van!) bouncing and crashing over an ancient bedrock of giant fossilised stromatolites - what a country! It led us to the Buchanan Hwy and to Jasper Gorge. We'd do it again and spend more time in Jasper Gorge - but of course! Lots of routes, most of them gazetted stock routes, we want to travel before they get sealed over and become 'super highways' teeming with people - Tanami Track, Great Central Road, Strzelecki track, Heather Hwy - I kid you not and would you believe it is in the Gibson Desert - I'm a Gibson. So of course we have to visit that! Oh, don't get me started, our travel list within Australia alone is veery long - and growing. Like for instance SA and all it's glorious places including a tantalising place I'd really like to visit is the Adelaide Museum of Economic Botany. It was officially opened in the Botanical Gardens in 1880. It has been described as ‘the last purpose built colonial museum in the world’.
