Our Trip Outback is over and we are house sitting or yachting

Summary of our Trip North

Camping in the north of Hunter valley then through to Central Qld.  Up through the dusty reaches (they didn't have their wet season last year) where Bunya Mts, Carnavon Gorge, Porcupine Gorge, Corella Farm at Nelia, Lawn Hill were the highlights.

Diamantina National Park used to get 5 visitors a YEAR  when they opened 15 years ago.  Now it is 10 a day (only in the winter months).  This is amazing, would love to view it from the air when we have a major rain event.  Water rushes down through the narrow gap of Janet's leap and then spreads out over the plains.

Bedourie's lovely 5 star spar and great camping area is very notable.

Bedourie to Birdsville, Maree down through to Lake Gairdner and Mt Ive.  Memorable.

South Australia's Eyre Penninsula, you haven't seen the last of us, we are coming back.

National parks in West Vic and NSW - lovely camping spots.

We are also enjoying housesitting (to take care of one rabbit and then one horse in the next house).

We have also spent a few great days out on Lake Macquarie and doing that again this weekend.
