    What a great singing voice Jasper has! The info on Coward Springs was fascinating. Will definitely stay 2 nights or more there! It’s the people you meet on travels that are amazing. Everyone has a story, and sharing stories is what makes the travelling life so fulfilling 😊

    We absolutely loved Coward Springs too. Our latest unexpected experience was camping at Lake Ballard, north of Kalgoorlie. Checking out some of the 51 art sculptures scattered on the salt lake was fascinating. The sunset and sunrise were the best, but the flies were relentless. It is a must do place to visit.

    • @TheFeelGoodFamily

    Most unique experience - out of three strips to North Stradbroke Island, two times we have had catastrophic breakdowns in two different cars. The second was only last year and led to a 9 hour wait, flights home from Brisvegas and towing back to the NSW Central Coast for the car and van. Hasn’t stopped the adventures though!

    I was in Chicago in 2007, followed two people into a lift in my hotel, asked them what floor, and looked up to see Mohammad Ali and his daughter. Spent the next 2 mins alone with both, shaking hands and introducing ourselves. I’ll never forget the kindness in his eyes nor the size of his hands, his hand seemed to wrap twice around mine and was so soft.

    Great footage of Coward Springs which is one of my favourite outback places. We jumped in the spa at sunrise on a frosty morning, best wake up call yet! 😂 One of the most memorable places is Cameron Corner where our 3 children were able to stand in the state they were born. One in each of course!! 😅

    • @TheFeelGoodFamily

    Our most memorable place was at Possum park near Miles QLD.
    It’s an old army depot turned into a camp/caravan park.
    Lots of underground bunkers to explore. We experienced a what I can only describe as spiritual experience on entering one of the open bunkers. Something we will never forget.
    Happy travels and thanks for the great content 😊😊

    Hubby and I drove with our caravan to Queensland from WA, via the Great Central Road and the Plenty Highway. We stayed at a few places along the way that you had recommended and had a fantastic time. We took 9 weeks in total to arrive back home to WA, via the Nullarbor. I was so amazed at how beautiful Australia is. I had no idea!! Everyday was different and so stunning, I’m hooked 😍 Now hubby has retired, we want to travel around Australia and see everything!! 😅 We just need a travel guide to help us plan and prepare 🙌
    Oh and by the way, we love watching you guys! It’s really nice to watch kind, honest people and we love watching Jasper, he cracks us up 🤣👏 You make us “feel good” 🥰 Keith & Nicola.

    Hi Guys, I love your videos. My first night sleeping in a swag on the ground in far north Western Australia, I was worried I would have the company of a snake. I woke up a few times through the night and looked up at the sky which was filled with what appeared to be clouds and clouds of stars. It was amazing.

    Love the episode, Jasper is a great kid and we love watching him, credit to you both, our favourite part of our short journey so far was staying in a hip camp at Bidj Bin, Victoria and it was last at night sitting around the camp fire, then suddenly this loud grunting noise was happening and to our astonishment it was a koala climbing the closest tree right behind us. Incredible experience.

    We travelled the Oodnadatta Track in 1993 with our three young children and stayed at Coward Springs , quite a bit different then not even a fence around the spa although the flies seem to be just as bad. We are loving the trip down memory lane so much so were going back, thanks for your travels, just love it.

    We were transferred in an old beat up van in south of France along with canoes to canoe back up the river by a local French guy just trying to make a buck. Was a lovely salt of earth guy and we had an amazing and picturesque paddle down the river back to Le Bugue. Core memory.

    We went away over this weekend, wanting to explore some areas - booked a Hipcamp, the listing said there was a swimming hole/hot spring and that it was a farm, turned up and they invited us to set up in the "camping area" next to the fire pit, but it was literally the driveway, right next to their house! 😂 Needless to say we made our excuses and carried on!! 🤣 🤣

    • @TheFeelGoodFamily
      @TheFeelGoodFamily  5 місяців тому

      Hahaha!! That’s hilarious 🤣 we booked at a intimate farm style camp with only a couple of sites and didn’t realise till we were there that it was a ‘naturist’ camp…. Clothing optional! 😳 we had a ball (excuse the pun) stayed clothed and the owners were super friendly! We laughed when leaving the property was a sign reminding campers to “re-clad before exiting!”

    Make sure fly nets for the Australian outback and the black flies are crazy especially when you are hiking in the desert of the Australia’s Red Centre and every summer gets the monsoonal thunderstorms bullied in the hot weather in the afternoons hours and lightning is spectacular to watch in places like Yulara by the Ayers Rock Resort in the north of Uluru or Ayers Rock. And also in Alice Springs gets spectacular lightning storms in the summer months of the heat in the desert make the clouds build in to the cumulonimbus clouds produces a lot of lightning and hear the sound of the thunder afterwards and the heavy rain causing flash floods when the storms hit.

    Great episode. It’s amazing what vehicles can do tracks if they drive safely and with correct tyre pressures. The old donkey trick of wait a couple of beers trick will stop a cold shower 😉🤣.

      We were amazed (and felt a little silly in our 4wd and off road caravan ) when we saw the large number of standard vehicles such as commodores driving along the Tanami Track back in 2016. All pulled over to let us pass with a wave and a smile, which wasn’t a behaviour echoed by our fellow tourists.

      Amazing isn’t it 👍 we haven’t done the tanami yet - another for our list

    The boss went to the toilet at emu park and she wasn’t impressed when she flushed as 6 green frogs suddenly appeared in the bowl. A little question do you think that a road caravan would be able to follow the route that you are doing at the moment? Oh and the frogs was in the 80s camping back then.

      Ha! Yes the frogs 🐸 in QLD are a little unexpected surprise 😅 we love emu park one of our favourite locations!! The Oodnadatta Track varies in corrugated sections and can rattle through you, in saying that we experienced a fairly well graded road for most of the 630km! You would need to make a decision based on the vans build quality and suspension- and tyre pressures lowered would be the first line of defence with the corrugations - you may also void your warranty if the van is not made for off-road touring so check that too with the manufacturer 😳 another option is to leave the van at one end and drive and overnight in the cheap accommodation options behind roadhouses and pubs - you could use Coober Pedy Views to drop your van (they have a cheap storage option) and then tackle the Oodnadatta from there. Hope that helps - my gut feeling is that I wouldn’t take a road van on the Oodnadatta- everything else we are doing on the bitumen would be fine obviously 💙 safe travels

      @@TheFeelGoodFamily thanks for that Paul and as to us having a van that is new enough to be under warranty is a long way off unless Tatts wants to supply the money,they haven’t yet.

      A good reminder for me to buy a ticket!! I think about winning the lottery all the time but don’t buy a ticket 😅 - back to the corrugations, you need to find a ‘sweet’ spot that allows the vehicle to almost go on top of them and not in between them - some sections we could easily do 70kmph and others 50kmph - the worst sections are always the 5-6km coming into or leaving a main stop - coward springs, William creek, Oodnadatta.
