You mentioned you are going home up the top is that the Carpentaria Hwy if so i will be looking forward to that as i have done that road many time on our fishing trips all the way down from Victoria, its a long way to go just to catch some fish but we love it. Don't know if your aware our T3 Thuraya satellite has gone down and maybe out until December, that's not good news as i doing the Madigan line, Simpson desert and Birdsville so that phone is staying home.

    Thanks for showing us such nice places..
    Did you say this was July 23 ?! When you was there.?
    Our cruiser and van are parked up for the winter here and we are heading to Europe for the summer there.
    You inspires us with so many places off the beaten track quieter and very nice.
    Will be back in October to start our TAA heading first to WA.
    Save travel and stay healthy

    Awesome episode Terry (and the preceding one too of which I didn't get around to commenting on...). Those boab look like amazing trees.... but they're nothing like their African cousins. One of my must watch youtubers, Itchy Boots just spent a few weeks motorbike riding in Madagascar and the trees there are amazing. Thanks for sharing your trip with us armchair travellers and keep up the good work. :)

    Beautiful spots. I'll add that first camp site to the list so thank you. You're right, flexibility in planning is the key to these remote places. ❤
    Sadly, that kitten will grow into a beefed-up fauna killer. I despair that someone would leave or introduce a feral cat to that beautiful place. It's former owner needs some serious education.
    Your videos are great. It's just that I've been witness to the decimation feral cats have wrought on our precious indigenous species.

I wish I had been able to meet you while you were back in Canada. Thank you for the Jaffa T shirt. I’m going to get your address from Penny so you can expect a little thank you present.

      Thanks for the kind words Kendal, that means a lot. It would have been great to meet you too mate, we will definitely catch up next time we are over. I used the Mavic 3 for my drone work. It’s an amazing unit and if I had to replace it I would be getting the same again. I use Premier Pro to edit the videos, it’s a little complex to get to know initially but once you get over the learning curve it’s super powerful. Thanks again mate, and go well👍😎
