    Bournda National Park FAMILY CAMP - Wildlife, Rain, Fire Pit Cooking
    I often end up with beautiful shots that never get an audience. Here's a simply edited video with highlights from our family camping trip.
    Bournda National Park is located on the Sapphire Coast of Southern New South Whales, Australia. The only legal camp site is Hobart Beach Campground. See Parks website for further info - Fees and day passes apply. The bird-life is something really special - which you will hear in the video. Goannas (Lace Monitors) were plentiful. As were the Kangaroos, Wallabies, Echidnas, Ring-Tailed and Brush-Tailed Possums. The coastline is rugged and beautiful - take care out there! We found the mouth of the Bournda Lagoon to be great spot for the kids to splash around in calm water (not shown in video) - its a few mins drive from Hobart Beach then short walk from carpark. Wallagoot Lake (the still ocean lake shown in video) is 50m from the camp ground with walkthrough paths from camp sites. We found lots of large crabs relaxing near the banks of the lake.

      Hello Price Fam!! This the probably my favourite comment ever too 😆 Heath is a true Menace, but he's a cute Menace. Tacky taste clothes are best for camping... And we can agree to disagree on marshmellow cooking !!! Hope you are well. An email well over due on my behalf. Hopefully you all had a wonderful xmas/ny together!! Bit more chilly there I reckon!!

    Hey Dan. That was a great video. Someone commented how relaxing it was to watch. So true.
    The bush sounds, birds and kids having fun was really nice.
    The hexa looked like it kept the rain off well.
    I love your camp kitchen, haha. I think it every time I see it. Such a great invention.
    The table around the firepit looks really handy for cooking, drinks and child safety.
    I’m hanging out for another cooking video….no pressure!!😁👍🏻

      That table around the fire pit looks good.
      I would watch a pack up video as I'm struggling to believe that you can fit all of that in your vehicle tbh.🤣🤣

    Amazing how much you can fit into the new Grey Dingo. Did I miss the build videos or are they still being edited? The hexa tarp is a good investment in wet weather.

      @OTWD  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Hi Michael, It's a skilled game of tetris but all the cargo fits in! Sorry taken a while here - pre-occupied with pressing life stuff last few weeks. I'm behind on editing - so nope you haven't missed anything. The first trip in new prado (Nth of Walhalla) is coming soon (within a week or so). The hexatarp is outstanding in heavy rain. I've been taking the 1/2 hexatarp with me on solo trips now too, as an alternate to vehicle mounted awning to sleep under. It sets up the same way. Cheers!

    Love to know how you get all that in the car along with the fridge and how long it take you guys to pack up... take me like 2hrs to pack up the RX4

    • @OTWD
      @OTWD  Před 5 měsíci +2

      Hi Southern Gent, Our strategy in the medium term is to involve the kids and give them jobs, so that it's not mum and dad doing all the work. But when they are pre-school ages its not really viable like that. We just try and keep them relaxed when camping so they become used to it and enjoy it..so it becomes familiar as something we do together :) A few folks have asked about packing the car. Might make a video on that in the future. It's not easy - I feel your pain. As an indication, the morning we left we woke up at 7AM (nothing packed up), and working quickly we left at 9:30AM (including feeding and entertaining the kids!) Cheers. Two adults frantically packing up....

    What's with the pooling on the tarp. Would dropping the pole fix this? Or no pole?

    • @OTWD
      @OTWD  Před 5 měsíci +1

      We put up the side pole high to give more head room entering/exiting, and to have a better view out when sitting under it. Removing the pole, or dropping it down fixes any water pooling entirely. The hexatarp is brilliant for water runoff management.
