Gourownway I started “The Lap” around Oz in 2022 and haven’t completed it. I love to find out of the way places, have a fish, hike and meet anyone thats keen for a chat.

If you see me, come and say hello. 😊 Thank you for taking a look at my page. I took the plunge to travel full-time in October 2022......
I've already been to some amazing places and seen some fantastic things. But Australia is sooooo big....I need some help to find all the amazing things out there. If you know of anything please let me know and I'll add it to my ever growing list of "Must Do's"

Ceduna Oyster Festival!!!

We met some people at Rawnsley Station that told us about the Oyster Festival which sounded to good to miss!!!

It was definitely worth the visit with the Oysters being amazing, the music being great and the Broncos winning the Grand Final just to finish the weekend off perfectly for me!!!

If you're looking to travel SA in October next year, put this festival on your list to do!!!..

Driving the Nullarbor is on top of so many peoples list when they plan to travel Australia...I know it was on mine.

How did I finally get to drive it???

We had traveled up to Marree to fly over Lake Eyre. The plan was to then head south to Port Augusta, turn left and drive The Great Ocean Road........BUT......

After nearly 3 full time years on the road traveling Australia, I hadn't driven the Nullarbor......and.....2 of my Grand Kids, my daughter and Son In Law live in Perth......so instead, we thought lets turn right at Port Augusta and head west..... I rang my Son In Law, and lined up a surprise visit for my Daughter and Grand Kids and off we went......

I have to say the Nullarbor was amazing to drive, there is so much to see along the way.

I have lots of photos and video to come......but these are a few of my favorite images so far........

If you hadn't guessed I do really love Rawnsley Park Station - Flinders Ranges.
And also the Flinders itself.....
The area has something about it that relaxes you and brings you back to earth....plus the station has some cracking campsites, ranging from powered caravan sites to bush camps, where you can find your own space to chill....the sunsets here are also amazing, with the sun lighting up the Bluff and adjacent ranges....
Throw in an amazing restaurant experience called the Woolshed Restaurant - Rawnsley Park Station where the food is exceptional and the service fantastic.....
I can't recommend this Station stay enough....

I've also uploaded it to Youtube, please go check out my channel as I am starting to get a bit more actrive uploading clips.

Hope you enjoy 🙂

Rawnsley Park Station - Flinders Ranges. is adjacent to the amazing Rawnsley Bluff!!!

I did this hike about 2.5 years ago, and it was so good I wanted to do it again......it did seem harder back then, maybe I'm a bit fitter now then I was back then.....

The area 2.5 years ago was in drought, very brown and very different. This time the area was alive with Green grass and wild flowers blooming everywhere!!!

I took my time getting pics and still managed the 11klms return in under 5 hours according to the AllTrails app.

I hope you enjoy the pics, its an amazing hike which you should do if you're in the area.
