      Across to Hopetoun & the Fitzgerald River National Park after Esperance? You'll love it. One of the most beautiful and underrated parts of WA. Safe travels.

      The weather ended up being pretty terrible so we spat it and drove to Perth for Christmas and NY. 😂 Back down south in the 2nd of Jan. We reckon you’re right, we will love it! Can’t wait! Cheers for watching! 🤩

    Safest place in lightning storm is inside the car or caravan as they act like a Faraday cage...don't think roof top tent would be a good choice🤔

    Nice video guys, looks like a fun adventure! For heaven's sake though just let the tyres down a bit, rather than chewing the tracks up for everyone that follows!

      Cheers Jamie! Good tip, more often than not we do lower the tires without filming it. ✌🏽✌🏽

    Great vids guys, enjoy watching your travels. But for the record please let your tyres down as it destroys the track for others. Happy travels! 😊

      You’re absolutely right Jodie, thanks for the tip!! 😍😍😍We always try to, sometimes we just underestimate how soft the track may be! But we’ve also learned a lot since then! 😅😅😅

    In a thunderstorm You really should get in your car. Standing under the wagon's canopy like that is NOT a safe place!!! Your car acts like a Farady Cage so You need to be inside of it! 50K volts is not going to care whether you are standing on 12 mm of rubber in your thongs. NOR is it going to care if you 30cm away from OPEN air by hiding under the aluminium roof of the Canopy, if it hits the car or ground nearby tendrils of electricity will also charge the air around where the 'bolt' lands, which is why they warn people not to stand near open windows looking out at storms.
    On another point, I recently found your channel and I'm loving catching up with old episodes. I love not having to listen to American tourists with their accent and I'm enjoying listen to real Aussies travelling the outback! I must be racist! LOL. I find Lil a real Kak! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 and am beginning to wish I had married someone like her, Lil is so much fun. Congrats to you Jake! However, the only thing I have so much difficulty with on your posts is the illogical way you wear hats inside of your car. This drives me NUTS!!! You've got a DAMN roof over your heads damn it!!! FFS take the hats off so we can see you properly! Everything else I love. SO keep up the good work and I'm subscribing. 👍

    Let your tyres down - stop ruining the track for other people!!
