Hey great vid guys… lots of cool places but one you missed was Bruny Island!… you won’t find a platypus there but you’ll see white wallabies, penguins and lots of bird life, there is a caravan park but also a lot of free camping… a must see spot on your next time over
We did spend one night at Bruny but you are right we need to spend longer over there. Tassie is so beautiful!
great vid up the loins btw
Thanks! We are hoping the Lions go all the way this year! 🦁
my wife wants to know what type of e-bike have you got. Also we noticed when we first started watching you guys, that Cain liked to talk a bit. great vid again
Haha Cain loves a chat! Thanks heaps. Our e-bikes are Etourers we ordered them through Jayco.
Typical great ocean road weather only two stages windy and cold or windy cold and raining enjoy your trip 😊😊
Haha so true!
Looks good guys! You can never have too much power ⚡️
Thanks we are LOVING it! Saved the day when it was cloudy and Van was running out of power!
@@hapninemptynesters we’ve all been there! 😬
Mate, we are so far behind too! We need to be a Whittle more disciplined! 😂
😂😂 Mark says he is jealous that we have so much footage up our sleeve. I think maybe 12months is a little too much!!
@@hapninemptynesters I’m going to have to get a bigger sleeve or maybe not get stuck in the reels rabbit hole late at night! 😂
@@GrabLifeByTheGourlays 😂😂 those reels can be addictive!
@@hapninemptynesters they’re a whittle too addictive! 😂
@GrabLifeByTheGourlays 😂😂😂😂
😁you are both awesome 👌 keep up the great content.
Awww thank you so much for watching, we really appreciate it!
Well done for taking on a huge challenge like the sth point.
Thanks, we we’re definitely determined to reach it!
It's a cult building used by cult members
We just think it is beautiful architecture.
@@hapninemptynesters No it's just you're both a pair of cult members that has brought that 💩 to this native land and you're both members that are destroying my native land.
Similar to a pub, TAB or gaming room full of pokies then🤣, but much much prettier.
@@Boggerheartjourneys are you one of those people that believe in something that doesn't exist like God or Jesus or Satan ?????????
Good cloths are mandatory attire for any work 🤣😂 Leisa loves when I do it 😉
😂😂 men 🤦♀️
@@hapninemptynesters 😂🤣
sir, you can't park there.
😂😂 maybe that was the problem.
My old home town. Ballarat get a hard time about the weather but it’s a great city to experience some amazing history from the golden past.
When the weather is good Ballarat is amazing to explore. We missed so much. But the Botanical blew us away!
Another great video. Very smart idea to catch train.
Thanks Colleen, we really appreciate your support! We had planned to stay in Melbourne but staying in Ballarat and training in was so much cheaper and it was easy!
@hapninemptynesters yes that's what I thought way too expensive to be in melb. Did you not get to go to sovereign hill
No we didn’t get to Sovereign Hill, it was just too wet most days.
@hapninemptynesters that's ashame you would've liked it. Maybe next time😁
@colleenhomicki4042 it was definitely on our list. I’ve been there many, many years ago but Cain hasn’t seen it.
Aysons Reserve was the old field days site, fantastic free camping on the Campaspe River. And there’s still a lot of gold in Bendigo. You need to go back and spend some time around Bendigo, there is so much to see and do in this city! Understatement of the video about Ballarat ‘it’s cold’. It’s always bloody cold there! Great vid.
Haha yes we didn’t believe everyone when they said how cold Ballarat was, we do now! And we are definitely putting Bendigo on our list to go back to!
Go the LIONS!
🦁🦁
Hello to you, both those little black grasshoppers are called Crickets in Victoria , make the noise by rubbing their back legs together. Keep up the great content, guys. Thanks as well for visiting my hometown of Bendigo
Oh thanks for that! And we loved Bendigo, next time we will plan to stay there!
Doodle dash cam! 😂
😂😂😂
Looks like Johnson cam is lining up that mud patch over there
😂😂
Which locations are best for taking a walk in the forest area and maybe watch Brumbies or Deers?
Long plain hut or 3 mile dam are the best places to see Brumbies, dingoes and possibly (we didn’t see any) deer. However unfortunately NP are culling the Brumbies and there are less of them around now.
Looks good guys!🙌🏾 you can never have too much power!🤙🏽
Thanks, that’s what we thought! More power is better!
Grab one😂
Mmmm no thanks!
Checking in😂
😂😂 bit late now!
Beautiful. I just love the Murray. So peaceful. Except when the cockys arrive. lol
Oh those Cockies are ridiculously loud! But definitely one of our favourite rivers!
Another great video. I was a bit confused with the flag on the Pevensey.
I believe the flag was the Upper Murray River flag. They told us about it but we didn’t catch it on camera.
I’m going on the spirit of Tasmania in January 2025 and this was a good video for me
So glad it was helpful. Have an AMAZING time!
Don’t talk to me about irresponsible men ,what about you women ? My bride went to a do at an Army boozer with $20 saying she wouldn’t be there that long, I woke up at 8am the next morning,no bride. After waiting and trying to phone her with no response,I drove over to the boozer worried that something bad had happened to her,only to find her out the back in the beer garden with a heap of her mates still drinking and she had a whatever attitude to go with it . I told her to just stay there and get a room and move in and live there from now on . At the time I had no money and nothing but bills to pay or I would have packed up and buggered off . To this day she is still on wood and I don’t hesitate to stay as long as I want when ever want and don’t let her know anything about what when where or why and truly couldn’t care less whether she likes it or not. What goes around comes around.
😂😂
Nug Nug is brilliant. Only advice I can give people new to the area, is do not get a site under the elm trees, because if they have elm leaf beetles they will crap all over your tent. van, awning or car and it is difficult to get off. Also the track you walk to swim in the awesome waterhole in the Buffalo River is notorious for tiger snakes. Not a problem if you keep your eyes open for them. Beautiful spot. Just keep an eye on your kids.
Thank you for those great tips! We have never heard of elm leaf beetles.
Guilty as charged 😂😂
😂😂😂
Awesome episode guys! Jez had to do his licence before he left even though it wasn’t due but would’ve expired on the road. QLD transport were ok with doing it super early!!🤙🏽
Smart work checking! We didn’t even think about it. We did wonder if you could do it early.
@@hapninemptynesters yeah we gave them the whole spiel about being on the road and they were good about it and gave me a temporary one on a piece of paper until the real one was printed out and sent. 🤙🏽
Thanks for sharing that might really help someone else! Safe travels!
use synthetic oils they work better and wont be used up as mineral oils do and last two and a half times longer
Thanks, Cain said ours is a semi synthetic. He said we need a thicker oil as our cruiser is getting a bit older.
Great vid.. One day.....
Thanks! You will get there! Can’t wait to meet you around the campfire one day!
Best thing you suggested, get rid of state governments and while your at it add councils, just snouts in the trough
We have really found since travelling that states just divide our country. It is almost like travelling to a different country.
I'd love to side with you Cain but I'm going to have to side with Katrina on this one. My wife stresses out about me too.
Thanks! I’m sure I need a gps tracker on him!
Why don't you get the wifes number next time U are up there... U should moved his paddle board somewere he couldn't find it... 😂😂😂or get him a water proof alarm to say call your wife or get home....😢😢😢
Great ideas! I especially like the one about moving the paddle board!
Shittest channel i have ever had the misfortune to come across.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment on our CZcams.
7:32 Drop ya guts
Haha I knew someone would catch Cain out! Of course it was you 😂😂😂
buy Katrina a morse code kit and when she works out how to use it she can show you Cain and then you'll check in. hahahaha where is this camp it looks good
Haha I love your idea!! This camp was at Barmah Lakes just outside Echuca. We will explore the area in next week’s episode.
Cool ep guys
Thanks! We appreciate you watching and commenting! ❤️
Yewh!!
👋
Dude is that at wy yung 😂😂
😂
Yum! Cold baked bean sandwiches are good too!
Ewww! You and Cain would make great friends!
Sorry Dr Karl 😂
@@hapninemptynesters everybody needs good neighbours! When neighbours become good friends! 😂 (I bet you sung that in your head!) 😝
@GrabLifeByTheGourlays 😂😂😂Yes!! Now it will be stuck there!
I’m victorian and I stay on my side of the road You know what I don’t like when people go wide to turn
I admit that was a big generalisation. However it’s pretty scary when the road is narrow and vehicles are on your side of the road and travelling quite fast.
