Trip Away In Safe Hands
Australia
Приєднався 7 лип 2021
We are Bill and Vicki and we live on an island in the beautiful south-west area of Western Australia. When we're not spending time with our wonderful loving family, or working in our garden, we enjoy travelling.
With a treasure trove of townships and countryside to discover, there is a lot to see in this amazing land of ours. And we always try to support the local economy wherever we go, especially the bakeries!
We put our trust 'in safe hands' - our Lord God and Saviour Jesus - as we journey through life.
Join us as we take another 'Trip Away'.

Home update and wildlife feeding frenzy!!
Переглядів 8621 день тому
Just a quick update on what we have been up to since we came home. A trip down the river in our boat. Lots of gardening. A visit to Mandurah to see our precious family and where we saw an amazing feeding frenzy of birds and dolphins.

First Fleeters and Beautiful Beaches
Переглядів 132Місяць тому
A last day at Tamworth at the Botanic Gardens then travel down to Kiama with a couple of interesting stops on the way. A First Fleet Memorial is found in a most unlikely spot. Trying to avoid road tolls through Sydney we strike some road works instead - but in a pretty spot. We attend my dear aunty's funeral service in Wollongong then travel to Ulladulla. Thank you to Brett and Rita for accommo...
So Much To See!

A warm soaking in the artesian pool at Moree was a good solution for the waiting-around blues! We travel through some lovely country towns before stopping at Gunnedah to discover what it had to offer. We receive some sad news and find the perfect dedication to a lovely Australian aunt who loved the Lord and will be missed by all who knew her. Then to Tamworth to revisit some spots we saw last y...
Wandering While We Wait

After last week's mishap, we found there was a lot to see around Mudgee so in this episode we visit the surrounding towns - Gulgong, Rylestone, Kandos, Wellington, and Lake Windermere. A lot of history in these parts, especially in regards to trains and Henry Lawson - yes there is a connection.

Visiting historic places is one of our favourite things to do - wondering about the people who lived in these places so many years before. So we enjoyed discovering some history in towns and cars in the quaint village of Sofala whilst camping off-grid in an idyllic spot. But then something happens that left us a bit shaken!

After spending some lovely times with precious family and friends in the Wollongong area, we then head up over the mountains to Bathurst. Another spin around Mt Panorama and a car service and some frosty mornings. #australia #caravan #travel #beach #racingcars #mountains #nomads
Great free off-grid campsites

What a find! Lake Lascelles is a splendid camping area! What a wonderful job the volunteers of Hopetoun (Victoria) do! More off-grid camping at Hay and Jugiong and then on to the historic - and popular - town of Berry (NSW).

Muster dogs and ancient volcanos

Climbing ancient volcanos, seeing the Blue Lake in all its blueness and finding the birthplace of the Kelpie - we have had a great time travelling through SA, especially Mt Gambier, and Victoria, especially Casterton. And we celebrate our 46th wedding anniversary. UA-cam music: Shadoma by Mini Vandals Dusty Rhymes by Freedom Trail Studio #australia #nature #travel #caravan #dogs #nomads
New Discoveries in SA

We travel over 1300kms and find some new places to visit. Of course one stop is for our haircuts with 'our' barber Matthew at Wallaroo! Then, due to a truck accident on the highway, we detour to Narrung, going on two ferries to reach it. We enjoy some other beachside towns - though a bit windy (sorry about some of the audio) - Beachport and Port MacDonnell. UA-cam Music: Birdseye Blues by Chris...

We take another trip away heading eastwards. Inventing some games to pass the time along the Eyre Highway and the Nullarbor, which is so green after a lot of recent rain. We end this first leg at Ceduna and stay at Shelly Beach Caravan Park - the best one in Ceduna! And we meet Jack from JS Adventures.

Rebedding Asparagus & Ravenous Ringtail

A bit more gardening. The asparagus get a new bed - or bath. We find the ringtail possum who has been munching on our plants. Some silvereyes have a feed on the tiny tomatoes. And we have a new parrot visit our garden - must be here on holidays! #australia #gardening #nature #wildlife #birds #selfsufficiency #possum

Good for the budding aborist What filter are you coming with ? Everting seems to have a tinge of pink
@@saltyskippa maybe it the aura around Molloy😄
Nice and short video ! Is that some drone footage !
@@Joel-si2jy thank you - yes it is the drone😊
So well done. Music good accompaniment too.
thank you
Quick trip home 🏠 😊
@@saltyskippa it was really
nice beaches
Yes they are
Australia is a great place!
Absolutely
I think it was Sirios (spelling?) our relative Private William Nash and his wife arrived on also. It's believed their first child was the first European to be born in Australia
It is amazing to think our ancestors would have known one another under dire circumstances. images.app.goo.gl/L3nPMZS68oMyFkRBA
@@tripawayinsafehands The most amazing thought is how Australia as we know it was started from just over a thousand people arriving in seven little wooden boats with only the stars showing the way. I have a mix of the new and the old, First Fleet and First Nations (Yuin, Bega Valley). We also hold the tragic record of the first child of the new colony being the very first European to die from a snake bite. My Yuin ancestors were also among the very first to see Captain Cook's Endeavour come into view. When they saw the white sails from a distance they believed it to be the spirit of the pelican returning to steal their children. Pelicans were seen by Yuin as thieves because they steel the fish the Yuin catch.
@@FromTheGong that is really interesting. Thank you
@@tripawayinsafehands Somehow eleven got changed to seven for some reason.
Beautiful scenes
Thanks😊
Have a safe trip home

Ciao ragazzi Hello..I'm a new entry from Milano-Italia.. OMG! I'm happy you are safety, what a great scare but dont worry, all will be fine, the providence is with you, be prudent. I like so much your video, you have a good photograph picture. I'm a old lady but still I have a free mind. I think I will to stay with you, travelling and find the gold .. free in the wind. Have soon a nice time! Ciao ragazzi, un abbraccio forte da Giò from Milano -Italia 😘
Welcome and thank you for your kind words.😊 we hope you enjoy travelling Australia with us☺️
Sofala is an interesting place and where you were camped is where the gold dredge worked, which could explain the rock walls. The Black bucket things on the monument are the remains of the chain of buckets which the dredge used to pickup the river gravels for processing.
Thank you - we enjoyed our time there. Love the history of the place and found out later that my grandfather used to go there fossicking too😊
Love our little piece of paradise down in the Gong. I live a stone's throw (literally) from Corrimal tourist park behind the lagoon on East Corrimal beach.
We were neighbours for 5 days then☺
Noice 😊
Thanks
So interesting! 👏👏👏

I can’t believe how blue that lake is! It makes you feel like jumping in it.
We were so blessed to see it that blue at this time of year😊
Great video 👍i bet in all these years off marriage not a word off divorce is mentioned but i guess murder is said all the time 😂 god bless 🙏
Thanks for watching. Neither of those words are mentioned thankfully😊
Great review. Gave us more confidence buying a second hand one. WHERE did you get the front window cover thing .....
Thanks. We had it custom made at a place called Kustom Kanvas in Western Australia.
Thanks😊 We had it custom made at Kanvas Kraft in WA. It was about $700 but worth it.
Yep SA is an amazing state you can spend months travelling the coast line then the same travelling up the river murray then there's the Flinders ranges too , oow go back down again theres kangaroo Island you could spend 1 year travelling around SA if your not in a hurry
Absolutely! We find more every time we come over😊
Amazing how much there is to see
There is! 🎉

Gardening is both hard work and great exercise, sometimes you don't know how great the exercise was until the next morning. Beautiful bananas.
