Its a great spot, very memorable that's for sure. You're lucky to be staying out there! We'd love to do the lava tubes underwater and just missed it when passing through early this year!
@@BigOzExplorers Mate, thanks to you and your wonderful family sharing this you have inspired us, on Monday we are going to look to purchase a car and van in NSW where we came up to have Xmas with family and when we then are allowed to go home to Vic we will spend a month getting our house ready and will sell it, put stuff in storage and sell and then off we go to see the “Big Oz” where we are so lucky to live. Keep living the life and sharing it with us 👍😃
@@grjh58 wow that’s a big leap and I’m so glad we have inspired you in that way, it’s going to be scary at times but I promise you it’s going to be the most rewarding decision!! I’m so excited for you! 😍😁🎉 you’ll have to stop us if we cross paths and show us your setup 😁😁
@@BigOzExplorers Well we just bought a car and van that was all set up. Van is not an off road one but will get us to a lot of places and help us get into life on the road. Car is a Triton but next year am looking to getting a Patrol Hope to buy you a beer 🍺 one day When is the Q&A coming out to give me some invaluable tips 😃😃. Keep having fun and stay safe in these weird times 👍
Great arial shot of the gillies range. Grew up on the tablelands and have very "fond" memories of many trips up and back to cairns causing some very real motion sicknesss as a kid 🤮 Beautiful place though 👌
I used to have the worst motion sickness as a kid as well, thank goodness it’s gone away as I have aged! I agree the tablelands are a one of a kind spot, so glad we had the chance to check them out 🥰
‘Lol, more drone’ I think has become your saying, I was pretty sure you had said it before and I had a look at your other comments and you have about three times! 😂 we will be giving that drone a bloody good workout in 2021 when we hit WA 😍
@@BigOzExplorers Lol, aaww Sian, just lluuvv it when you talk more drone. Just gives a great perspective, yeah you pulled up at a lake, then the drone went up, bloody massive. Showed all the well spaced campsites along the edge. Does it for me.
Oh wow ! So beautiful .we use to do all these lovely spots , but now have 2 fur babies, so no go for us .. all good.. it's choices you make in life ...
Having dogs always makes it a little more difficult to see some places. The family we travelled with would, on occasion, put their dog into care at the local vets if there was a must do item nearby, maybe that could be an option 😊
Haha it’s funny how many people are not cave fans! Glad we got you through them in a fun and non claustrophobic way through the TV 😜😂 Happy New Years James!
@@holidaymail 😂😂 I only like the civilised caves but not so much the black hole the boys found 😳 that’s when I offer to babysit the kids while they venture in 😂
We had the tyres swapped out when we arrived back in Cairns and the spare was also replaced with one of the tyres we were running that was hardly worn at all. 😁
Awesome video as always guys and Happy New Years. Imagine going up that pass with the exhaust and the super charger up front. That's just a petrol head orchestra
You got that right, every boys dream right there. It was lounder than normal in this video because we were going up hill (but good for others to hear what it’s like too!)
That was probably one of the most interesting episodes yet!! The balancing rock, the rock wallabies, the caves and frigg me that fig tree haha, that Ford museum was sooooo cool, who did Jada say has a car like the XW GT?? that is very close to my number 1 car I want to own , actually xy gt but I would have to sell everything I own including the wife to get that haha
Was a bit action packed hey! Jayda’s biological Dad actually has an XY! If you look up ‘FUCOPA’ (they are the number plates) you’ll find it. It’s quite well known in the car scene ☺️ hope you’ve scrubbed up better after New Years now mate 😜
Big Oz Explorers ahh righto, yeah I saw another comment with fucopa so I already checked it out, awesome car!! And yeah haha bit better now but feeling down because we are back home, I’m jealous of u guys doing that full time!!
@@Mrbeast0099 ah yeah well that’s who we are talking about. He passed away when Jayda was very young and her Uncle now has the car and races it in memory of him ☺️ We feel pretty similar to you at the moment being back in Brissy in a small unit! Can’t wait to get back to the van! Although having a bedroom to ourselves with a real door has been pretty awesome 😂
Big Oz Explorers oh ok wow , well good on Jaydas uncle for keeping the memory going👍 I guess u guys are kickin the new year off with a bang!!! 😳😉 sorry couldn’t resist 😂 when are u back on the road??
During the episode do you mean? Not much yet as this is all ‘pre Anaconda’ footage. Anaconda gear won’t pop up for a few episodes yet, at this stage we are just sponsored ☺️🙌🏻
Thanks Jason and same to you, cheers to 2021! 🥳 do you mean the graphics? I used them to give it a slightly different feel, good to mix it up and keep things fresh every now and then 😁 we’ll be heading into WA this year. Spend some time in the Kimberley for the end of the wet and then make our way down the WA coastline just before tourist season 🥰
The graphics but you guys are also talking about calmer. Go back to notch point and you guys were on excitement level +. I guess your getting more used to it all now.
@@jasonja1981 oh yeah interesting, haven’t been told that one before... yeah it’s kinda of ‘normal’ life I guess now? 😂 we still do get excited though! 🥰🤙🏻
Happy New Year. Great content very enjoyable to watch, only one small negative, with the lead in count down, was that a mistake! It makes one want to jump ahead, then you miss the Sponsor, possibly not what you want.
Yes I hear what your saying, that countdown only comes up if your viewing the premiere with us but otherwise it’s not there for general viewing. I hope people don’t skip Anaconda ☺️ Happy New Year Laurie 🥳
@@martyma3244 no they were fine, they were very close though with only a few mm clearance of the mud guard at the front 😂 was never an issue 4x4ing etc which is when we thought we may have heard a scrub
@@BigOzExplorers yeah nice I've just ordered a silver ti saw yours and was sold promise I wont completely copy you guys but you're looks mint. Happy new year guys all the best looking forward to some awesome content. Yeeww 🤙
Loved this one, although it took me almost 2hrs to watch plotting your places of interest on my hema 😂. Can’t wait to do far north qld, hopefully this year if we get on top on COVID. One of your best, don’t know how those boy’s climbed through those cracks though 😟. Take care n travel safe.
Another great video ... and love our lingo, not remarkable, amazing or outstanding, nor bonza or grouse but mickey mouse mint, ha ha loved it and loved Sian's reaction.
Glad you liked a Chillagoe, it's where the Mrs and I live and work.👍😁
Its a great spot, very memorable that's for sure. You're lucky to be staying out there! We'd love to do the lava tubes underwater and just missed it when passing through early this year!

Great arial shot of the gillies range. Grew up on the tablelands and have very "fond" memories of many trips up and back to cairns causing some very real motion sicknesss as a kid 🤮

Thanks Jo! Glad we are helping you and many others out there 🥰🤙🏻
Worked at a marble cutting factory in Chillagoe 30 years ago. Nice caves. Lol, thanks for the 5 sec of Gillies Lookout, looked great. Lol, more drone.

Happy New Year
Haha it’s funny how many people are not cave fans! Glad we got you through them in a fun and non claustrophobic way through the TV 😜😂 Happy New Years James!
Yeah no way in hell for those caves! I’m a complete wuss and in no way built for them lol
@@holidaymail 😂😂 I only like the civilised caves but not so much the black hole the boys found 😳 that’s when I offer to babysit the kids while they venture in 😂
Happy New Year🎉
Same to you Susan ☺️
Happy New Year's. Great episode.
Happy New Years to you too 🥳 thanks for watching 😁
You haven't mentioned the tyres and if you have taken them back. Were you still driving around without a spare?
We had the tyres swapped out when we arrived back in Cairns and the spare was also replaced with one of the tyres we were running that was hardly worn at all. 😁
That was such a cool episode guys. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Great footage! Thanks. 😀
Thanks Kylie! 🥰🤙🏻
You should come to nsw and stay at wiseman ferry it so beautiful if you do hit us up it right on the Hawkesbury river lots of camping for caravans
I’ll add it to the list, it will be a while yet. But we will get there eventually 😁🤙🏻 Cheers mate
Happy New year from Qld

Thanks Vin 🥰 Happy New Year to you too!
Thanks for another great video guys but I definitely couldn’t do those crawl tunnels I wouldn’t fit 🤣😂 and I just wouldn’t do them 😬😬😬😬
To be honest I wasn’t keen on crawl stuff (Chris can keep that 😂) I think way too much and put myself off lol
Omg is that old guy still at the Chilligoe Ford Museum. We saw him there 11 years ago.
I think its named after him and all! He was lovely and so happy to have some visitors in the low season 🥰
Hey! Are you guys from Bushy?
Bushy? Where is that? I don’t think we are 😂😂
@@BigOzExplorers near Townsville. We thought we seen you guys driving not so long ago.

Maybe 🙊🙊
It wasn’t installed at this point though
Exciting. Did those wheels and tyres scrub without lift

He made me laugh that day! He’s still said it a few times since. We’ll have to get a Mickey Mouse Mint shirt made up for him to wear 😂
Can you guys do a episode on how to make money on TH-cam and how you got Anaconda sponsorship.
We will talk about this in our Q&A videos :)
This episode was "Mickey Mouse mint" 🤔🤔🤔
😂😂
42.40 very sweet when she realises it’s what Fucopa use to look like hahaha ❤️
It took her a while but I think that’s because the bonnet was up and the engine would look different to her too. Was cool though! 💚
