      @@madswansfan1 Correct, but technically it's winter, even in Darwin, they may call it the dry season but it's their winter. Shorter days, cooler nights, but because they are in the tropics the most pronounced difference between seasons is a wet summer and dry winter. As for anywhere up north inland (Katherine for example) or at a high altitude (Herberton, Queensland for example) well I'm pretty sure they'd just call it winter because they would be using heaters at night and getting out the doona.

    Hi Tia and Chev, Great to see you back, we have watched most of the channel and love what you do. Make sure you do the Gibb River Road up north. P.S. We were the one's that set the article on Blueberry. Looking forward to your trip. Helen and Fred

      Love the Gibb River Road but if you are on your own you need to take good communication device or an EPIRB, and make sure you lower your tyre pressure in the dirt. Had a few flat tyres on that road.

    Welcome back to Australia, Kudos to Mazda. totally unrelated, I bought my first ever Mazda (Cx5) about a month ago. I love it. Here is an idea for Mazda, before you leave Australia you both sign the Ute and Mazda randomly gives it to one of your subscribers.

    Hi Tia & Cheveyo
    Fantastic news & so well-deserved re the vehicle.
    The trip sounds amazing.
    Just wondering if you have thought about going through Echuca on your way down to Melbourne - it's an old paddle steamer town on the Murray River. That whole area is beautiful; there are working paddle steamers & the river height variation during the year is huge as the melting snow makes it's way down there in spring.
    There was a great mini series made (in about the 80's I think), about the river trade, called "All the rivers run".
    Cheers
    Safe & happy travels 😊

    Welcome back to Australia. I bought a Mazda 3 two years ago, new, on my retirement. I was 72 at the time, and this is the third Mazda I've owned. They're easy to drive, economical and last forever. If you haven't already bought one, get one of those single burner, self igniting butane stoves which take disposable fuel cylinders. They are usually $25 to $35 AUS. in supermarkets, camping suppliers or Bunnings, (what don't Bunnings sell?). Have fun.

    Swanny!
    1) The number plate is “cyg”, a cygnet is a baby swan, cygnus is the genus name.
    2) This is the “swan song” to wrap-up your big circle trip.
    3) You landed in Perth, on the mighty Swan River, the WA flag has a swan on it too!
    4) Blueberry was a fruit, Ruby was a gem, Swanny is a bird. Good variety there.
    5) If you put two Swans beak-to-beak it makes a love heart. Lol.
    6) The classic black swan is mainly found in the SW and SE of Aus. The start and finish of this trip!
    Then again…BT-Barry is pretty awesome.
    Good luck, soak up the WA coast, recommend a visit to Shell Beach, 80 Mile Beach, Exmouth and Broome of course. And as many National Parks as you can. Mind the salty crocs, they’ll eat you 🐊

    This is something I always do with my diesel. After a long drive. I’ll let it idle for about 10 minutes. So I don’t cook the bearings in the turbo. I know a lot of people are gonna disagree with me. They say you don’t have to do it with new cars.. I also recommend a DPF catch can especially if you’re planning on keeping the vehicle.

If you're not crunched for time , do a bit more exploration along the way as parts of inland Victoria are quite amazing.

    Excited to see you guys back in Australia. My wife and i were on the trip you are currently doing and i watched your EAST COAST adventure as it was a reminder of our trip up from Sydney to the Daintree in Queensland. I had hoped we crossed paths somewhere Fitzroy crossing as we arrived there a few days after you made the decision to travel south through NT/SA and back across the Nullarbor. While in Fitzroy Crossing they opened the ‘old bridge’ when the water subsided so you may have gotten through soon after arriving had you come through. Be ing from WA, be prepared as there is definitely a lot less to see and longer travel between any places of interest. Places to definitely would be Kalbarri, Monkey Mia, Coral Bay, Exmouth (from there the Pilbara region is a mining region and not that exciting) Broome is a big tourist town (Cable Beach) and is the start of the Kimberley region an is truly a stunning part of our country. If you can, go north of Broome to Cape Leveque , do the Bungle Bungles, Cathedral Gorge, El Questro and do a Lake Argyle boat tour in Kununurra. Safe Travels!
