I am putting Uluru on my bucket list!
You will fall in love x
I loved the Australian outback and I loved to travel again.
Once again an awesome vid! Thank you
Love Jaspers Uluru cup race 😂
Thank you 🙏 💙🤩 he is keeping us entertained
WOW WOW WOW. Another great video guys. Thanks very much. It really brought me to tears just looking at all that beauty. One quick question. What video editing software do you use. Excellent job.
Hi Paul,Katie and Jasper,I loved this video.We are planning a trip out to the uluru next year.Thanks for sharing.You are so lovely to watch.I love that you are stepping outside the box and doing something wonderful and spending so much time with Jasper your amazing little man.Happy travels 💕
Thank you so much for your beautiful comments and support x 💙🙏🤩
Another Great Episode, Thanks for giving me More Locations to look at Next year when i Visit. Looking Forward to Climbing part of Ayers Rock & The Olgas
Do you loved to watch the summer lightning storms in the township of Yulara in north of Uluru?⚡️⛈️
Wow that would be amazing 💙🇦🇺
Jasper is sooooo cute his grown up so fast. Thanks for sharing useful tips and what a great content. Love your channel.
Thank you 🙏 he is a little ray of sunshine ☀️💙🤩
Fresh Produce is Always subsidized by the Government to promote Healthy eating in our Indigenous Families across the whole of the Top End.
That’s very cool - we didn’t know that!
LOVE a good damper👍👍
This was delicious 👍🙏
@@TheFeelGoodFamily yeah, rub it in🤣🤣
I loved watching the summer lightning storms in Uluru or Ayers Rock and it is like the Arizona monsoon season in opposite the summer in Australia. Be careful and be safe to watch it in Yulara by the Ayers Rock Resort and the campground ⛺️ and lightning is very dangerous especially not go swimming and not under the trees at the campsite 🏕️
Thank you Alissa great advice stay safe 💙
How good is Jasper. Great little presenter. Sir Mixalot - Funny little fella
He cracks us up with his new found humour and has certainly found his groove in front of the camera 🎥 💙🤩🙏
Please be safe to watch the lightning storms in Uluru -Kata Tjuta in the township of Yulara and it is fun and exciting to watch during summer months. Lightning can be very dangerous and be careful to watch it in Yulara.
Desmond here I am so jealous of your guys looks a lovely lunch
Thank you 🙏 it was lovely to share together with the amazing backdrop 💙🇦🇺
Yummy dampa
Delicious 👍👍🍻
Always love your live episodes🇳🇿👍👍
Thank you mate 💙🇦🇺👍
i like the zero gravity reclining chair for my camp chair
Sounds great
You finally made it to the rock 🎆🎆
Love it out here 🇦🇺💙👍
Hello 👋🏻 All
Hello 💙🇦🇺
Hey Paul & Katie love the videos , doing a tremendous job on all your videos information, we love watching you, But Paul I think you need a new Akubra to match Katie and Jasper 👌
Hahaha!! I do…. They look so BIG on my head… I just need to find that right one 😅🎥🕺
Nice to catch up with you again, glad your having such a lovely time. Thank you for all the important tips, & that healthy damper looks so yummy, Jasper. Good boy for helping Dad with the wood, bye for now Elaine from Brisbane.
Thank you Elaine 💙 he is such a good boy 😉💙👍
Wonderful episode of your time spent in this most sacred of areas. I am still yet to experience the magic of Uluru. Loved the travel tips you shared and of course Jasperooni's cooking segment with the yummy looking damper! Thanks you amazing people! :)
Thank you Jo - it is a special place and you will love it when you get there 💙🇦🇺
Morning Katie , Paul and my favorite lad Jasper the man ❤ Sir Mixwell 👍 👏
Thanks for an awesome channel and love the episodes 😀 Thanks for sharing your adventures with me and I appreciate it alot 🤝🤝 Greetings and safe travels from South Africa 🇿🇦
Hello 🙏💙 he loved being involved in the damper that’s for sure and it was delicious! Safe travels and have a great week ahead 👍👍
Another great episode, we enjoyed every minute. We were at Uluru a few years ago and did the 10.5km base walk. It was easily the best experience we have had. Walking around allows you to spend time with the rock, to stand, stare and listen to the silence. It took us most of the day because we stopped at every opportunity to take it all in. We are a couple rapidly approaching our retirement years but we found the walk fairly easy, certainly easier than the Kings Canyon rim walk. Highly recommend you do the Uluru base walk next time you are there.
Thank you Peter and we will take your advice 💙🙏
Thanks for another great episode, we enjoyed watching while in Venice Italy.🙏🏻
Beautiful 🤩 enjoy that incredible city!!
Thanks Guys , really enjoyed the clip . Makes you want to get up there and see it all . Keep up the great work. 👍👍🍻🍻
Thank you Mark 🍻👍 such an amazing road trip!
Another good video. Came and saw your talk on Tuesdsy at the show, sorry we missed meeting you.
Thank you and we’ll catch you at the next one 👍😉🇦🇺💙
Yayyy, such a great episode. You guys “rock” 😉 (see what I did there 🤪) absolutely love watching you and the beautiful family you have.
Hahaha! Thank you 🙏 😊💙🇦🇺
Thanks for the chair review, I have been eyeing them off in your videos. But as someone with back issues that needs a very upright sitting position. I felt your review lacked some info on the different sitting positions.
No worries and thank you for your feedback - to help you, you can visit the www.stratusoutdoors.com.au website - also, there is a different model chair that is called ‘everyday model’ - no reclining option with this model and that may suit you better 👍💙 all the best with your decision 🇦🇺💙 AND you can still get a ‘FEELGOOD’ 15% discount on all their products - just use this code at checkout 🙏👍
Another great episode.
Love the info session, really handy to know.
“Bloody Flies”, I agree Katie. 🤣
Paul crashed the drone, hope it survived. 😀👍
Thank you 🙏 if we could eliminate the flies how good would that be 😅💙🇦🇺🍻
Just looking at aryes rock no matter what time off day it is would be a dream to me one day 😊
Stunning colour changes all day you are right 💙👍
@@TheFeelGoodFamily beautiful it is
Great episode. Went to the Rock in 94. It sure is a great place to visit. Saw Jasper this arvo at the Caravan Show.
Thank you 🙏 we just love it there
Hi from New Zealand. Another great show and you do it all from a caravan, amazing, I stated watching your show last Christmas while I was recovering from covid and now I have watched almost all of your shows. Those camp chairs do they make a table as well. You mentioned about the segway tours, we did the segway tour at the Currumbin wildlife sanctuary.
The lifestyle pioneer's also have a zone caravan and love it on there yt show. Keep the positive trails going Thanks. Jono p
Hi Jono, thanks for the support!! Yes they make a table as well 👍👍 you can find there amazing gear through our website www.thefeelgoodfamily.com
Hi Paul, Katie and Jasper. Enjoyed the tips as usual. Do you have any knowledge on where to refill a gas bottle? We are west to Yulara shortly. TIA Cath
Hi Cath, you could phone the shell station in Yulara - I think they sell gas ‘swap and go’ but double check…. We carry an additional small gas bottle with us as a back up plan.generally we see ‘swap gas bottle’ service opposed to refill service available 😅👍🇦🇺💙 safe travels and enjoy every minute!
Great video guys. Thank you.
I’m about to do a solo camper trailer trip this time next year. So this was really helpful. Could you do a video on the star link installation and what you need. Thanks
Thank you 🙏 that’s super exciting and time will fly that’s for sure 👍 we have done a couple of reviews on the starlink - the main consideration is being able to power the set up with 240v from your camper or vehicle - this will require an inverter and power source. But every thing else is basically plug and play 👍 here is a link ua-cam.com/video/j9faEzzQg_k/v-deo.html
I think the lifestyle pioneer's are going to be at the Brisbane RV show you might be able to catch up with them. Have a great week Jono p
Looking forward to meeting them 👍🇦🇺
I have a suggestion for boiling the water for your coffee, something the wife and I use 100% of the time, having a little one may make it to small, we have induction but find it easier to use a Jet Boil.
We love the look of JetBoil thank you for the recommendation 👍💙🇦🇺
HI The Feelgoods
How can I get a copy of the Explorers Way book??
Hi 👋 we have tried to find online with no luck…. However, we purchased the only 3 copies we could find during this roadtrip and are about to ‘giveaway’ all 3 copies in a competition starting this coming Sunday 18/06/23! Details will be in this weeks episode and good luck!! We are also releasing our e-book on this Uluṟu RoadTrip in a couple of weeks… 🤩💙👍
Why did you change canopy and tray from having a NORWELD setup ?
Hi Steve, the Norweld is an amazing canopy and one the best in the industry no questions, we had an opportunity to change out our canopy to the Mode and with our set up dropped approx 200kg on weight. Cheers
Another great video. I was wondering how you mounted the Starlink on top of the van. Any tips? And what is the round thing that looks like a satellite near the Starlink? Any ideas please. Love you.
Thank you 🙏 we don’t mount the starlink we just place on the roof once we know we have a clear line of sight to the sky - the round thing is a basic tv antenna - hope this helps 💙🇦🇺🍻
@@TheFeelGoodFamily absolutely helpful. Thanks for the swift response. Continue to enjoy your trips. God bless you.
🙏💙
My gosh, how fast has Jasper grown and become more confident in the last 6mths! Jasper is right 1 spoon of milo for the cup and 1 straight in the mouth.😂 We look forward to seeing you at the Zone Muster again this year. Some goods tips for staying at Yulara, taken notes for our next visit.
He’s growing up so fast we are trying to press pause 😅💙 looking forward to muster and catching up 🙏🍻🇦🇺
Them chairs look great 👍 hope there not too expensive tho
They are fantastic!! They also have a lifetime warranty and repair service… buy quality buy once 👍🇦🇺💙
@@TheFeelGoodFamily that's great 👍 what's a life time warranty 🤔 even after say 5 years it breaks they will fix it free or replace it 😀
Hey Katie, I love your hat! What brand is it?
Thank you 💙🙏 Kooringal Australia
Hi Guys what brand of compost toilet do you have I been checking out the OGO
We have a natures head and have also heard great things about the OGO 👍👍
It was nice ice to be in the audience and to see you all in person at the show this afternoon. A question. You seem to boil water on the induction cooktop in a saucepan. Are there no suitable induction cooktop kettles and is it faster than a regular electric kettle running off your inverter?
To be honest we haven’t properly looked for an induction kettle yet although I believe there is one available at BCF! The saucepan is easy to manage, a great size for two cups and easy to pour as well. And yes very quick!!
is it good to use beer as rising in food for young kids
We have non alcoholic beer
Is it just me. Or is it safety bit missing from content? 12:39 “talk about it in a sec” watched full 41min but dont think it mentioned
Sorry about that 😅😳😬 we felt safe the entire trip and would recommend travelling to the NT. We speak more about the safety concerns around Alice Springs when we get to Alice in the next couple of episodes 👍🍻🇦🇺💙
We are day away from NT unsure if we need to skip Alice Spring or not.
Just so you know that’s not damper that’s a scone damper does not have butter or self raising flour in it that is bread
Ok 😅💙🍻
ya might want to Google that
Always a lovely spot. I cant believe how quiet it was. When my grandaughter and I camped in the overflow at a similar time of year that overhead you showed was absolutely packed with cars! We did the full base walk, it was lovely. People on skegways and bikes kept passing us as we meandered around. Quite a lot of new stuff since we were there last, may have to do a new visit. Great episode. 🙂 cheers Cheryl
the rooks were made when the rest of the world was. as the bible says the whole world was made in 6 days the only complete written record of creation a lot less than the millions of the dream times
Interesting 😊
Desmond here guys I have never had that food you just cooked is it cold there guys we in new Zealand are in the middle of winter I have my new bed new curtains on Monday colour is a misty blue waiting for my dining table coffee table american oak my couch have got a new TV oh my god what a outstanding video it seems very peaceful and quiet
Stay warm Desmond! Great to hear you have all your furniture coming along well. How big is your new tv? It is very peaceful here 🙏💙🇦🇺👍
Desmond here my t v is 50 inch waiting for the heat pump to be install it takes about a week to come into the country I will pay for the heat pump cost 3, ,800 dollars to buy and get it install then 300 dollars to install the tvv aerial then the gardener comes in digs my garden and plants my 12 roses 8 in the front 4 each side of the fence and 4 around the back so I can look out from the lounge in my new swivell chair my mother adore roses

This is time of the year in the summer afternoons to get the heat thunderstorms in Uluru- Kata Tjuṯa and the lightning is beautiful to watch it safe at the Ayers Rock campground in the township of Yulara at the Ayers Rock Resort and be careful and be safe to watch lightning storms in the summer months of the monsoon season while the moisture flow coming from the Top End and into the Kimberly with the temperatures of above 95 to 115 degrees Fahrenheit with a lot of the flash floods can occur in the Red Centre and can be treacherous of driving on the roads and please check the weather conditions before hit the Stuart and into the Lasseter Highway and into the Great Central Road of NT into WA border into the Docker River. The extreme weather events can be very dangerous especially along the Docker River can flood during storms with a lot cloud to ground lightning strikes and also large hail can damage cars especially if they are golf ball sized hailstones and they don’t usually get hail that big and mostly get pea sized hailstones in the area of the heart of Australia. I loved watching lightning storms and it is very spectacular in the summer months of monsoon season starts from November to March, and it is a typical desert monsoon in the Australia’s Northern Territory in the Red Centre and watch it safe in Yulara by the Ayers Rock Resort at the Ayers Rock campground.
Always great advice thank you again Alissa and safe travels 💙🇦🇺🙌🕺
Hi guys Desmond from auckland new Zealand I like to ask you how close are you to the urulu how cold is it can you walk to the rock your campsite seems to be so close that's amazing shop looks a perfect day any flies to worry about do you wear jeans or shorts do they have heaps of tours to urulu rock how far is the medical centre to the rock do you have to pay on the shuttle bus I would love to see the field of lights
Hi Desmond, it is still 20km to Uluṟu from the campground but it just looks so much closer!! It is huge!! It ranges from 4 degrees Celsius early morning to 22 degrees Celsius during the day. There are flies but not too many in winter. The medical centre is next door to the campground. The shuttle bus is free! Take care and stay warm over there in NZ! Cheers
Desmond thank you so much for the information I will write that down for the future in my travel folder still organising my unit its been 4 months now renovating my unit with the weather containers tradesman deliiveries
You are welcome 🙏
