Kia ora koutou! Watching this episode now enjoying a nice Wolf Blass in Wellington. Bec we are 100%%%, especially Tom it’s all about the window view!! 😊 Totally worth it
Hey Justin 50yrs ago when I was Boy Scout we didn’t have fire starters, they weren’t invented then. If you pull some dead grass or leaves on the ground under the trees and then put small kindling sticks and light that, then start getting larger sticks you will have a fire every time. Keep up the entertaining videos thanks.
Nice to see Hervey Bay again, we have stayed there a couple of times on our trip from Brisbane to Townsville. A lovely area, good to see you guys back on the road. Cheers from the UK.
Great first episode! We save the fluff from the dryer in between camping trips. Even better, stuff empty toilet rolls with it, makes excellent fire starters! Also, collect dried teabags, and dab citronella oil in them. Scatter these in the fire too! No cost, weight, and easy to store!
Thanks for your video. Flathead, used tin foil scrunched in little ball when we forgot our bait, and it worked really well. We learnt this after forgetting our bait, and had our lunch wrapped in tin foil.
A tip for fire lighters - take the lint from the cloths dryer and in small silicone ice cube tray, melt old candles into lint and wait to set. They burn for around 7-10 minutes. Keep up your safe travels 🚍
Later in the vid you have a bag hahahahahaha, out of the firelighters you bought, I'd go the Samba Fire Wool. Low smell, work well.... Give me the 15c bag tho, 100% of the time. Always have them with shopping anyway so no extra money spent there!
Jack, Jack, Jack, frustrating for ya, Dad yackin on while you fix ya rod up ready to fish. I thought you had it, haha, next time mate lay rod on your lap that's what i do. 🎣 🐠 Good to see you all out there. Thanks for sharing your life with me. xx
Thanks Guys , enjoyed the video . What a great spot ,hope you watched out for the cow patties around the van . Looking forward to the new series . Stay Safe 👍🍻🍻
I like to use a fire starter called "Fatwood" about $15 a bag from Bunnings. It is made from pine, the part that has a lot of resign. 1 or 2 in the with a bit of paper or dry grass work a treat. That is my hot tip.
Fantastic episode, welcome to my backyard. Weather has been a little average lately. Painful about the waterpark, thought the kids would of frothed at the new skatepark too. Lucky you are not here this weekend has blown it's ass off since Thursday night.
Wow, how magic to see that mob of friendly emu’s and then the bonus of dolphins from the drone. Thanks again for bringing us along. Did you get to swim with dolphins?
Thanks Guys. Welcome back to camping and Hervey Bay, love the drone shots Justin. Sent you an email last week when I saw you in town, but understand if you too busy to catch up.🤠
Yeah not sure I fully agree with these Hipcamp prices mate. $50 bucks for no power or water, well I think is so over priced. For you guys I get why you want to be alone… but most the interactions in a park for the kids is the best part of caravan life seeing them make friends and having a blast.
Ya just gotta pay it these days hey. To go to a van park it’s more like $85 a night and we don’t enjoy ourselves as much as sites like this. We find the kids interact more with other kids at these sort of sites than the van parks hey.
I saw you set up there when I was swimming laps🏊 but didn't want to come bother you, such a beautiful spot❗❗ You got out at just the right time, we have had a week of crazy wind💨
Yeah man, high tide take my surf ski, nipper board and goggles 🥽 Down to the beach there and have a splash. Need a 3m + high tide though. There has been 0 shark attacks on record in Hervey bay so I've got to be bloody unlucky to become lunch 🦈
Hey guys! Great video as always!!! Do you know whether this campsite is still active or did the own shut it down? Tried to find it on Hipcamp but the link no longer works?
No fire lighters, no problem. An old bushman's trick. Break off a few dead twigs ffom the trees, which are much dryer than any twigs on the ground. Start with small match stick sized twigs, then finger size twigs etc.
Lived in the Bay for 30 years and glad you like the beachfront site at Burrum Heads. Its paradise here.
Cheers mate happy Sunday
Vaseline and cotton balls work's every time
Sounds the goods

Awesome little spot that was 🤙🕶

They work good hey, and smell nice
Love Yepoon and Emu Park will be spending a month in Emu Park in July.

Great ideas
11.30pm Sunday night. Loved the vid so chilled now will sleep with dreams of our next trip. Thanks guys
Cheers bud, nighty night
So great to see you all back on road great spot I love what you and family bring to the table 😀
Cheers
Dorito chips make good makeshift fire lighters. Or melt the Misso's favourite candle and dip cotton wool buds in the melted wax.
A mesmerising view, a crackling fire - you've got it all!! Such a great video, love watching your travels. 💯
Cheers guys
good to see you back - bad luck on the fishing and firelighters, although was a bit concerned about what look like long dry grass behind you
Yep , dry grass and wind and clearance , maybe different rules there
Another great episode.
Cheers
magic spot
Thanks for your video. Flathead, used tin foil scrunched in little ball when we forgot our bait, and it worked really well. We learnt this after forgetting our bait, and had our lunch wrapped in tin foil.
wow, thats crazy it worked.
Loved the look of the salad on night one. Please share...
So easy. Lettuce, tomato,avacado,cucumber, walnuts, and dried shallots
Great To See Guys Back Out Camping 🇦🇺 Aussie On 🍻
cheers rossco
Wow what a top spot you guys picked that well and Justin since when do you use sanitizer for a fire ha ha anyhow safe travels
Someone told me hand sanitiser is flammable 😂

Yes! This is what it’s all about 💪🏼💪🏼 have missed seeing you guys hit spots like this
Cheers mate
The brown paper bags you get from woolies are absolutely mint for lighting fires.

your right, haha i had them all in the paperbag
@@TripInAVan firelighters in a firelighter.. Give it a try, I use about 1/4 bag per fire.
M8 you got to soak the red head in lighter fluid for a couple of hours, lol,yep tried them too same thing,
Terrible hey,
Last time the Misso was having a fluff was opening the difficult gate 🤣🤣. Love how you take the piss out of her 🤣
😂😂all good fun

Plenty of cow poo in the tyres for sure
Good to see again guys

Thanks Stella
Great spot! Looking forward to the rest of the series!
Cheers mate
Thanks for the video. Love listening to your adventures 😊
Cheers mate
Awesome spot! It's so green and the water looks beautiful 😍
Great camp
Hot tip- use corn chips for firefighters, and Aldi often have actual fire lighters for $3-4
Cheers for the tip
Love Ru's hair cheers
so long now
"Fishing with kids is like wiping ya bum with glad-wrap." 🤣🤣🤣!
So true but hey
You should have seen me trying to open musgrave roadhouse gate! 😅😅

Wind is crazy! Glad we got a good day
@@TripInAVan yep, don't think it has been much below 25- 30knots since late Thursday night
Yeooow! That’s living barry
Save 10 bucks on fuel lighters
And try used paper towels to start fires. Works like a treat

Hot Tip..... Alway keep Kero in the Caravan for Fires. Keep you tea bags dry them out and soak them with the Kero. Cheap Fire Starters for years
That’s a great tip hey
I second corn chips. Always have a bag on hand. The cheapest fire lighter out there.
We are in Hervey Bay at the moment. Lovely place ❤
Great town
Best firelighters going around - corn chips
Petroleum jelly (Vaseline) and cotton wool balls work a treat for fire lighters 👍🏼
definitely trying this
😂😂😂 “I made this salad mate!” 😂😂😂
Another awesome series guys. Love it.
😂😂
Wow, how magic to see that mob of friendly emu’s and then the bonus of dolphins from the drone. Thanks again for bringing us along. Did you get to swim with dolphins?
Mate you need to make sure there's always a pack of domino's in the cupboard.
Perfect fire lighters when stuck...
i live in wide bay area and water park also close for whole winter as well
Thanks Guys. Welcome back to camping and Hervey Bay, love the drone shots Justin. Sent you an email last week when I saw you in town, but understand if you too busy to catch up.🤠
❤❤😮 is blacktop to blue water will b a good name for ur next book
Good idea
Local fishos were telling me that you can get Barra on that stretch of beach at the right time of the year!
Be awesome to get one there hey
Nice one guys. Looking forward to this series.
Cheers mate

If you can. Find fire gel. We use it alot when we go camping
I’ve heard this, but I haven’t seen it anywhere hey,
@Trip In A Van - RoadTrip Australia Series bunnings Do it I believe.
If you’re ever stuck in the bush without fire lighters, corn chips work a treat 👌🏽
Bec, where is your beautiful coffee mug from please? My Mum would love it!
Fire lighters, get a jar, fill with cotton wool balls, add diesel, cheap and easy.
Home made fire lighters - plastic Jar half filled with metho - add used tea bags. Tea bags will burn for 5 minutes - use as many as required.
I like it
I do the same, but use diesel in a glass screw top jar. Dry the used teabags first. Works a treat.
Can't go wrong what a sopt
Great camp
Dried orange peel is a great fire starter
Gday olkid, did you make the fire pit and swing in plate or is it off the shelf? Love the show! Thanks Martin 👍
Hey mate I made it from 2 different items. The tripod is one and the grill from another. Works unreal
Great ep. Thanks
Cheers
Beautiful spot. But unfortunately not dog friendly so it’s a no go for us. Good to see you guys back on your adventures. ❤
Cheers mate
As usual, looks like you guys had a blast!! Great up load thanks....Code Word, I made the Salad 😂😂
😂😂thanks mate
corn chips are fire lighters too 😎
They work well for sure
Hi from Hervey Bay
Going to be another great series
My missus wants to know where bec got that big coffee cup from thanks
I saw you set up there when I was swimming laps🏊 but didn't want to come bother you, such a beautiful spot❗❗
You got out at just the right time, we have had a week of crazy wind💨
Swimming laps?? Out the front there
Yeah man, high tide take my surf ski, nipper board and goggles 🥽
Down to the beach there and have a splash. Need a 3m + high tide though.
There has been 0 shark attacks on record in Hervey bay so I've got to be bloody unlucky to become lunch 🦈
@@Off.Track4x4 so nice on a big high
Hey guys! Great video as always!!!
Do you know whether this campsite is still active or did the own shut it down? Tried to find it on Hipcamp but the link no longer works?
I believe it has closed now yeah. Something to do with council regulations I think
Hot tip!!
If you run out of fire lighters or don't wanna spend the $$$ - a packet of cheezels will do it too! Give it a try
Nice
No fire lighters, no problem. An old bushman's trick. Break off a few dead twigs ffom the trees, which are much dryer than any twigs on the ground. Start with small match stick sized twigs, then finger size twigs etc.
Good tips
There is that many twigs around haha
Tried Doritos workwell great firelighters
Love your videos with your adventures. Just an idea....can you put up a map at the start to show us exactly where you are in OZ?
GREAT IDEA.. I'll start doing that again for ya's
Bec what brand and style sunnies are you wearing? 😎 they are gorgeous! Love your videos guys ⛺️
Love the chair Bec was sat in, large comfy round one, can I ask what brand is it?
Yeah for sure. It’s a navigator orbit chair
Love the little tiff over hand sanitiser, I'm sure all married couples can relate 😅
Any recommendations for lightweight camp chairs? Thanks 🙏
Bro any deep fried chips or those pizza shapes make great fire starters
I’ve used corn chips before… I’ll have to try shapes
No fire lighters, Paper towel and dabb of olive oil, best fire lighters 🤙🏽
Oh really!!! I’ll try that
Have you guys ditched the coffee machine from the van? Noticed a bit of extra bench space in your vid 😊
We have mate yeah, having a break from coffee for a bit
What’s the first place you stayed by the beach Justin? I just keep missing it 😅
Hervey Bay beach ranch
Gotta watch the cattle. My right rear door is caved in because my bull decided to scratch its head on it.
😂😂the worst! Good story though
Hi guys just wanted to know when you’re going to post another video. And will u post a video of ur cruise ❤❤😊
Where does Bec get her hats from? They are beautiful ❤
One match + one sheet of newspaper = one fire. 😂
Haven’t bought a newspaper in years😂
Watch those cheeky cow's. We have them at work and they eat all my plastic bunting and fencing!!
😳oh how annoying
Cottonballs coated with vaseline a good backup if you have no firelighters
Nice, I didn’t know Vaseline was flammable
@@TripInAVan Vaseline isn’t flammable google it to explain why it works with cotton balls
Justin use dorito chips for firelighters 👍
Don't forget to check the fuel system
Cool
Cotton buds and vaseline work the best of all, if in doubt..... petrol lol
Looks good but should probably check your fuel system
Why’s that?
