  • Join us as we start our adventure into Western Australia! We cross the border from Northern Territory and explore Lake Argyle and camp at an awesome little spot just out of Kununurra - Buttons Crossing - on the other side of the iconic Ivanhoe Crossing. This is one of our favourite camps we've done so far.

    Loving these videos. No showing off gear and sponsors, no "over presenting". The family seems genuinely engaged in the trips. With some good shit stirring between the adults. 👍

    Nice work in letting your daughter drive. I loved driving around the bush at that age.

    Love it. I remember learning to drive when I was 10 in an old HJ75.

    Hi there I have come across your trip around OZ. I have camped there for a few days and yes there are salties in there. My sister lived at Kununurra so we visited there a lot. Beautiful area. You made me laugh about the drone and i think you are like me you dont fly over water and in places where you cant recover it. Love the vids. Great teaching kids whilst travelling. I have subbed. Bravo from Victoria Australia

    Cheers for bringing back some great memories for us .
    We spent a few nights there in 2016 and it sure is a crackin' spot.
    We too used the unlimited water to do a few loads in the washing machine after being of grid for a while.
    We're enjoying your journey guys👌
