Thanks for a great adventure video and beautiful scenery. Looks like you have a brilliant trip, keep it going.
Thanks so much! We have an amazing country to explore! :)
Thank You.
I have been adding some of these spots to our trip for 2023 wonderful following your adventure.
Aww thanks so much! So glad to hear you're enjoying the videos and they're helping you plan your adventure! 😁
I have the exact kayak and also decided on it based on reviews. Probably didn't use it as much as I'd planned but when I did it was wonderful.
Excellent footage....as usual....❤❤
It was a brilliant Kayak! Except, be careful leaving it out in mice areas (e.g. south Aus / west Aus beach camps), they chewed holes in one of our seats.
@OverlandExposure oh oops! Something I did discover was under inflating the seats gave a lower centre of gravity and made for a smoother paddle.
Great video
Thank you 😁
Hi Amanda, Daniel and Aria. Thank you for this amazing video. The weather maps from Jan and Feb showed some very wet conditions in that part of NT. Were you amongst it? The gorge swimming holes looks fairly full, is this normal? Take care guys. Regards Jordie and Lyndy
Hi Jodie & Lyndy! Nice to hear from you 😁 hope you're well!
We were doing this area in December and they had some rains, then January they had the large floods that took out the trainline and highway, luckily we were just ahead of the big rains. A friend of mine who lives in Alice said we had great timing as there had been recent rain and the water will be fresh and at a good level, but I'm not sure if that is normal for December or not.
Hi guys great video as always didn't you have 2 dogs when you started your travels over a year ago.
Hi Scott, thanks so much! Yes we did, unfortunately they couldn't cope with van and travel life, they were fretting and too stressed that it was no longer fair on them to be put through it every day and their health. We still think about them every day, and our still heart breaks every day but they are happy and healthier in a new home with a new family. We made the hardest decision of our lives and did what was best for them and they are at a loving home together. 😭
