    WE STOP AT FRIENDS IN BAKERS HILLS FOR A BBQ AND CATCH UP
    WE LEAVE THE NEXT MORNING TO GO TO YENYENNING LAKES FOR A OVERNIGHTER.
    ITS VERY WINDY AND COLD.
    WE TAKE ALL THE DIRT ROADS TO TEST OUT THE NEW VAN.
    I TRY TO USE THE DRONE BUT FORGET TO SAVE THE FOOTAGE...
    WE MAKE OUR WAY TO THE DOG CEMETRY IN CORRIGIN TO READ THE HISTROY OF THE DOG IN A UTE.
    NIK MAKES ME PULL OVER IN A HURRY FOR A DONUT VAN SHE SPOTS IN KONDININ...
    HOW SHE SEEN IT GOD ONLY KNOWS...
    WE END UP IN HYDEN TO GO WALK THROUGH THE TOWN BEFORE WE HIT WAVE ROCK.
    AT WAVE ROCK WE WAIT IN LINE TO GET THE FAMOUS SHOT .
    BUT CAMERA HAPPY TOURIST HAVE OTHER IDEAS.
    WE WALK THE EDGE OF THE ROCK TO HIPPOS YARN TO FIND THE SAME PEOPLE WITH THEIR CAMERAS LOL.
    WE LEAVE WAVE ROCK FOR AN OVER NIGHT FREE CAMP AT KULIN.
    THIS PLACE WAS SO WELL SET UP FOR THE TRAVELLERS 72 HRS FREE GREAT PLAYGROUNDS FOR THE KIDS A PUB FOR MUM AND DAD JUST ACROSS THE ROAD.
    HOT SHOWERS AND FLUSHING TOILETS AND WATER TO TOP UP YOUR TANKS.. THANK KULIN WHAT A GREAT PLACE .
    WE HAVE A MEAL AT THE PUB AND HIT THE SACK FOR THE NIGHT.
    NEXT MORNING WE FILL UP OUR TANKS AND WATER BLADDER THEN HIT THE ROAD FOR DUMBLEYUNG.
    ANOTHER FREE CAMP WHERE WE WALK THE TOWN TO EXPLORE THE HISTROY OF THE LAND AND WATER SPEED RECORD OF THE BLUE-BIRD IN 1964.
    THE NEXT MORNING WE TRANFER THE WATER FROM THE BLADDER TO VAN AND TIME HOW LONG IT TAKES.
    THEN WE HEAD FOR THE LAKE TO SEE WHERE THE SPEED RECORDS WERE BROKEN.
    THE DRIVE THE 10KM IN TO FIND THERE IS NOWHERE TO TURN AROUND AND FACE THE FACT WE MIGHT HAVE TO REVERSE THE WHOLE WAY BACK OUT.
    VERY NEVER RACKING TO SAY THE LEAST.
    I GET THE DRONE UP FOR AND FLIGHT TO CAPTURE THE LAKE BEFORE HEADING OFF.
    SO, SIT BACK AND WATCH US MAKE MISTAKES, REVERSE OUT OF TROUBLE AND FLY THE DRONE FOR THE FIRST TIME .
    CHEERS DAVE , NIK AND INDEE...

    Yay Nik, you're driving and looking good! Great video guys! I enjoyed seeing your daily routines with some good and some challenging moments (that's life). Thanks for showing the towns you pass through. Most channels usually skip showing them and only show the end destinations, which is great, but its also about the journey. Australia is so much more than just popular/tourist spots, its also about the communities past and present. It's good to know how people earn their crust in remote areas too. Dave, well done on the drone, you'll only get better from here. Nik, I'm right behind you on your quest to find a bakery where ever you go, there's nothing like a good pastry review.

      Yes Nik drove for about 30km so it's a start.
      The drone will get better in time hopefully 😆
      We both love the bakery and you are right its all about the journey.
      Cheers Dave and Nik 👍🍻🇦🇺

    We always enjoy your eps. That drone footage cut down to some great moments, definitely worth the upgrade for improvement in photo quality. Good call keeping the car out of the soft stuff for the reversing these tips hopefully will stay onboard with me for our trips when we go. Good on Ya Nick for driving, great to see you behind the wheel.

    Nice work turning around! You’ve probably got the drone worked out now but you can just lower it to your hand, might save the bonnet a few scratches 👍

    • @daveniksadventures2255
      @daveniksadventures2255  5 місяців тому +1

      Yes working on the drone I'll try and catch it
      But last time I did that it was a disaster it hit my fingers then my face 🤣

      Easy way to land it in your hand is to pull the lever to get it to lower with your hand directly underneath palm open, it will sense it and go back up… just keep pulling the lever to to lower (don’t let it go when it goes up) and it will then relower and land on your hand and turn off. 👍
