- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- We cross the border into SA through Mount Gambier and see all the amazing sites the town has to offer. After a short stay, we move onto the quiet beachside town of Southend SA. This place was magic! From the bush camp to the beach, the fishing options, walks and amazing sunsets which was topped off by a proposal!

This is my second video I have watch, I'm now really jealous, Laura can tow, reverse a caravan and empty the toilet cassette.
Congratulations on the engagement!!!
Ha ha ha classic! If you go back to the early episodes you’ll see I travelled with Coco on my own through a few states so learnt very quickly to be a caravanner. Thanks for the engagement wishes too!! 🙏
Lucky man. Laura tows, reverses, empties that grey thing.😳 Definitely a keeper! No wonder my husband wanted me to watch your channel🤣
😂, she's settling a bad example . Certainly a keeper ❤️ 😍

Southend is one of our favourite spots to go. We love the bush camp there.

Cheers Yusuf thanks again for tuning in 🍻
Evening from West Gippsland, love ya work guys and everything about your videos, always enjoy watching. Hope to meet you on the road one day...and Coco the Viszla !!
Hey Robby thanks for watching and following, if we cross paths definitely come say hi 🍻
It doesn't matter you do or what you say there's always someone that's allways got a negitive comment, at least you are both having a go and enjoying life and your information is second to none
Thanks Bill love your support 🍻
Katrina here , thank you for the heads up on where you were going to next RE : sink hole and blue lake .
I fast forward as I'm not ready to revisit.
I'm going to try your pasta recipe .
As my mum use to say to me when I sang , don't give up your day job lol....
Have fun and enjoy , Coco is so cute .
Heard Milenco mirrors are the best to attach ,, but no idea if you could to your model vehicle successfully.
I have the MSA but have a D Max and a 2020 ,12ft back door poptop, it is wide but .
Haha l won't give up my day job just yet 😅. Good luck with our pasta recipe - very tasty 😋.
Awww thank you, she loves getting away especially running around beaches
Love your little Buddy Box, got one similar , you need to buy some firestarters to add to it.
Thanks Clinton that's a great idea. 👍 👌
The reason all guides say “may be required” is because not all caravans are the same width. If the caravan is the same width or less than the towing vehicle, then no mirrors required, but most caravans in Australia are wider than the towing vehicle meaning mirrors are required. ADR 14/02 applies. Suggest you look at Milenco mirrors 😉
Yeah very interesting 🤔, We can see directly down the side of our caravan with the stock mirrors plus at the rear with the Safety Dave camera.
Good to see down to earth honest people on youtube.
Saying it how it is , with a good sense of humour.
Keep up the good work.
Your movies are good entertainment.
That's awesome to hear thanks for watching and commenting. We'll keep providing honest content 👌
Umpherstone garden is amazing. So pretty. The blue lake is also something to see. Not sure if you passed the big purple servo on your way out of town “Endeavour” that is who I work for, you may have seen them around the Gippsland area.
lts amazing area. Yep we have seen a few around in the Foster area of Gippsland.
.....when the roads are greasy, but fly like an arrow when the road gets narrow!
Hey Tim it looked that way although the footage was sped up when editing so the episode wouldn't go so long. 🤣
I use Camec towing mirrors. They have adjustable rubber straps that hold the top & bottom clips in place really well. As for the mirror pushing back when a semi goes past, I have had that happen a couple of times. Luckily no damage was done.
Thank's Glenn we will have to check them out 🍻
Enjoying your vids guys. I noticed Laura editing on an iMac, which I want to take for our next trip. Wondering if you have used it successfully on an inverter? Cheers
Hello! Thanks for tuning in. Yeah I have to edit on the road to keep up with all the footage downloading and uploading videos every Monday night. At that Mt Gambier caravan park, we were on an unpowered site so I was using the inverter. We have a 3000w Kickass Inverter and 340amp Giant Lithium Battery. We have 4 x 190w solar panels on the roof so we've never been short of power. It's bulky to carry around but so much easier to edit compared to a laptop.
You should invest in a pair of Milenco mirrors.
Ive never had a problem with them
We've looked into Milenco mirrors. it's more to do with the Landcruiser mirrors folding in very easily.
Like how you guys share or the jobs around, but congratulations on engagement
Thanks Colleen yes it helps if one of us gets sick that's for sure 😊
Hi just found your channel and so far enjoying it. Saw you get pinged for your mirrors, when we got our first van I bought some mirrors similar to the ones you bought, they were useless. What surprised me when you were stop, which was fair enough because you didn’t have extended mirrors but I didn’t see the police checking exactly what you could see with your standard mirrors.
Hi Geoff thanks for tuning in and commenting. We agree with those mirrors are no good and dangerous. It was surprising they didn't check if we can see directly down the side of the van. We can see really well with our standard mirrors.
Guys put the mirrors under the Toyota mirrors use the straight section on the toyota to attach them to. Hopefully they want slide off or get milenco mirrors. If you can't get mirrors to fit the 300 their is no legislation that will exempt you from driving without them. Your insurance could be null and void if you have an accident and it was deemed due to not having correct visual down the van. I used to demonstrate towing mirrors at caravan shows, another thing, read the pbs for your insurance as it states that you must notify them of anything that they wouldn't reasonably know. Ie not complying with road rules. I reckon they will cancel your policy if told them as you are classed as unroadworthy. Just my two bobs worth but keep up the great videos..

Thanks you make some valid points. We've tried flipping the mirrors unfortunately it doesn't work. not to mention they still fold in on the door into a headwind.
Great video again yes SA has some of the best coastlines in the world I think but could be because I live here ! My wife was born at Naracoorte not far from Mount Gambier ,the southeast area is awesome.Congratulations on the engagement you seem well suited and have fun that’s the key good luck thanks Ron and Kim 👍👍
Hi Ron & Kim, you're definitely spoilt with great beaches ⛱️. thank you SA holds a very special part of our lives now, we can't wait to get back there 😊
If you receive a fine for the mirrors, I would challenge it. Ultimately you may need to go to court but you look to be on solid ground. “May need” is hardly compulsory.
Thank's David it's definitely a grey area.
Similar situation re mirrors. I have a Range Rover Sport. Have lost two sets of useless clip on mirrors. Camera works great except in rain.
Hi Ian thanks for your comment. Yep there's not much on offer unfortunately 😕
Awesome as always Laura and Troy. Those views are gorgeous 😍 The sinkhole was just as beautiful as Southend SA well not the entire Southend lol.
Thank you so much for sharing your awesome adventures and for all the hard work and time you put into these videos. It doesn't go unnoticed. I think you both are Simply Amazing.
I'm so looking forward to the next video. I'm excited 😊
To be honest I thought y'all have married already. I thought you were just the best-married couple I have ever seen. Bahahaha
Seriously you're perfect together. Please have safe travels and a wonderful trip.
KEEP ADVENTURING
GOD BLESS Y'ALL
🤗HUGS🤗
Thank you for your beautiful words we both appreciate your support. We feel blessed to have met one another 3 yrs ago and can't wait to get married ❤️
@@JourneyUnknown I hope you share your wedding pictures. I'm so excited for the both of you. Congratulations 🤗HUGS🤗
The wedding might be on TH-cam but you’ll have to wait for next year for that one! ❤️
@@JourneyUnknown I can't wait just to see everything leading up to the big day. That's awesome that you're going to share such a special moment, I'm so honored. You guys are so awesome.
Thank you I'm so excited.
I'm looking forward to all the planning and watching the details come together ❤️
You two are the best!
STAY AWESOME
KEEP ADVENTURING
GOD BLESS Y'ALL
🤗HUGS🤗
Ohh you’re too kind!!! Thanks so much Susan. 🙏 we’ll probably film the engagement as well.
please do your own research on the extension mirrors as the info for Sa was mmm slightly incorrect and the police in SA will have a VERY different view
Thank's Sue we appreciate your comments and agree all states have different interpretations of law. hopefully this helps all travellers moving forward 🙏
@@JourneyUnknown exactly believing what the internet says to the actual law is 2 different things and the fine from a cranky police person.
are you from mentone? i go to st bedes and just wonderin why u showed the map of mentone
Our factory is in Mentone where we left on our way to Colac
Bad luck with those mirrors. In about 30 years of towing, mostly with Landcruisers, I’ve never once had a towing mirror fall off or blow in like that.
Hi Mick thanks for watching and commenting. It must have to do with the way they build their mirrors now, not very sturdy
@@JourneyUnknown I used Milenco grand aero. Have clear views now but they are more difficult when I’m NOT towing. Maybe MSA?
Cheers mate I've heard a lot of good things about Milenco mirrors. Nah MSA mirrors aren't available yet that's what we want to go with.
@@JourneyUnknown get the Flat glass ones. The convex ones are a nightmare for reversing. The back of the van looks about half a mile away. Cheers
Cheers good point
was it wrong to giggle when I saw you taking the iMac with you to Edit while on the road
Not at all 😆 it definitely takes up a bit of room
Have you done Tassie
Yes, we have been to Tassie a few times. fingers crossed we'll be back there shortly 😀
@@JourneyUnknown I have just watched it. So sad for the Bub in that cage. So glad she could be in familiar surroundings on the way back. 💕💕💕
Troy, All i can say about your lack of beer intake is, You need to stand in front of a mirror and give yourself a stern talking too.😆😆
😄 😄 😄 Don't worry Mick l will be making up for it shortly 👍
Gee Toyota have gone backwards with them mirrors its like their forgotten that cruisers tow big wide stuff around in Australia , telescopic mirrors the go now but gee to get a set made to suit that car if anybody makes them will cost the earth , mabe fit old school truck mirrors on it 😬
And top it off with an air horn..
Couldn't agree more 👌
i have those there crap lol
Totally correct 👌. thanks for watching Toni
Pleasure
We went to mcgaurans beach over the weekend, thanks for sending me location we had an amazing time.
Wow that's great hopefully you got the good side of the weather 😀
There is no DEBATE 4:36 I can see why you got so many negative comments re the Police, you out and out lied to them about the Mirrors. That Van should not be on the road without adequate mirrors ever, not to protect yourselves but to Protect me and my family etc. As the Cop said he sat in your blind spot for many Km's and you were clueless he was there that is the reason to have them. This doesnt make you bad people in any way so no hatred should be directed by any people.
😂. it was pissing with rain you couldn't see behind you if you tried. Read up on vic roads legislation. Mirrors are not required if you can see directly down the side of your van. We clearly can. The coppers were great and did the right thing 👌.
Aussie outlaw 🤔 🤣
