  • In 2018, in twelves days we drove from Adelaide to Darwin in a rented camper van. In Part 1, we travel from Adelaide to Alice Springs with a side trip to Uluru (formerly known as Ayer's Rock).
    Click here to see the sun rise at Uluru and accompany a forest ranger on a nature walk to view ancient cliff art of the Anangu people: • Ayers Rock, Uluru Dawn... .
    Click here to drive around Uluru and witness the monolith's changing colors as the sun sets: • Ayers Rock aka Uluru, ...
    In Part 2, we drive from Uluru to Darwin: • Driving the Stuart Hig...

    I love the way you showcased the changing vegetation and the birdlife to show those who may not know that the outback is truly spectacular!

    Every summer gets thunderstorms in the afternoons in Alice Springs in the Australia’s Northern Territory and lightning is fun to watch in the summer sky when it rains in the outback.The Giles Meteorological Service issues flash floods in the Stuart Highway and be careful driving in the rain during the summer months. The severe thunderstorms had been issued for the Tanami Desert and into Alice Springs and the storms can produce serious weather conditions of driving.

    Australia and North America might have been connected at one time.

    Hello, I briefly met you at the Stay and Play in Homer, I came by to say Hi! Any footage going to be posted from Alaska?

      Dear Jonathan, were you our hosts at Stay and Play? I meant to send you are Christmas video 2023. Sadly, all the footage from our Alaska trip (recorded onto a 512 GB SD card) died while I was filming the aurora borealis in Tok. The SD card is toast 😞, and I had such good intentions to make a video like this one of that beautiful and amazing trip. Thank you for watching! All my best, Linda

    Australia's outback looks a bit and very similar to the American Southwest

    Ive never even gone to australia but wolf creek has convinced me that I never want to step foot onto the continent and especially not the outback🤣. It seems everything there will do anything to kill you

    That does look scary and I'm a seasoned traveller to the untrained I eye it looks harmless I don't like the lonliness on a straight road especially that rain

      If only people would worry more about the content and less about all the technology we may actually have more decent videos

    I've driven it 7 times. Big deal. It's still as boring as batshit.

      Cool video. They don't have to be Hollywood quality to be enjoyable. Hope i get to do this trip at some point. Thanks for sharing!!

    I've been to Australia twice and didn't like the terrain there. It's so dry, brown, flat and ugly. Sorry but, it's just my opinion. The cities and the people in Australia are wonderful but, the terrain there is so UGLY.

    • @MegaHariboboy
      @MegaHariboboy Před 2 lety +1

      Then you are downright lying that you have been to Australia. The Australian outback, sure thats flat dry and brown, but Sydney is not brown, Melbourne is literally known for its parks (and its rain), Queensland has tropical rainforests, and you literally fly over mountains from Sydney to Melbourne.
      And it's literally orange in the video. How can you not see that it's orange.
