How good has Miriam's commentary & camera presentation developed ,it has been a real pleasure watching it grow from the early days ,you would seriously out do 95% of the current TV numpty's.
Thanks so much ❤️🙏🏼😁
Love that you show that everyday isn’t amazing on the road .
Kalbarri is such an amazing place the coast line is beautiful.
Yes, we definitely have down days as well ❤️
The Mother's Day scene was very heartfelt and emotional! Great vid. Thank you.
You’re welcome 😁🙏🏼
Kalbarri! Stunning footage of such a spectacular place. Thanks guys for allowing us to see the reality of life on the road.
You’re very welcome 😁😁
Think my favourite part was seeing the girls hugging when Miriam was upset over family. We are about to do a big trip with other families and I know this is how we will all be feeling at Christmas. Thanks for keeping it real.
Thank you! Yes, missing family is definitely the hardest part!
I wnjoyed your very real , very honest, very raw and personal sharing of the tourists leaving their bags under your tripod at Natures Window! A true instagram moment.
Haha!! It was one of the realities that most UA-camrs don’t show 😂
Just love how real Mirium is beautiful Lady 🫶🏻
Thank you 🙏🏼
Lovely moment watching 2 mums, friends and sisters comforting each other ! And Chris emotion explaining !
Thank you 😁🙏🏼
Love watching you guys from here in Launceston, never miss an episode. Natures window was amazing to see and I love the rawness of Miriam breaking down. My mother lived in Kalgoorlie and it was so hard not being about to spend Mother’s Day and birthdays with her. Take care and keep putting out the amazing videos ❤❤❤
Thanks so much for all the support Amanda. It means a lot. We are heading back to Tassie in December and can’t wait. We love it down there.
Yeah having family so far away can be very difficult ❤️
Another majestic episode it was ... The drone shots and BGM were perfectly matched . The views are god level beautiful. love it
Thank you!!! Chris is so good with the drone now 😁🙏🏼
Awesome, guys! Probably your best episode! ❤
Cheers...
Mad Aussie Adventures
Wow! Thank you! 😁🙏🏼
Hi guys.. We are a bit older than you guys but your travel videos are spectacular .. We liked the drone shots of Natures Window and Shark Bay .. The First aid kit will be a wonderful addition for use when we finaly start our epic travels... Thanks for your efforts when you travel.
Thanks so much! We are so glad you’re enjoying our vidoes 😁🙏🏼
Chris & Miriam thanks for the video and Natures Window" & the Skywalk were my favourites 👍👍
You’re welcome!! Thanks for watching 😁
We have been watching you guys for a while now, your episodes are definitely getting more of a draw and appeal. Keep smiling 😊
Thank you! 😁🙏🏼
Best part natures window!
It’s an incredible place for sure! 😁
I just think its great that your advertising all the great spots including the skywalk. what a awesome view from a engineering marvel. keep up the great work
Thank you! WA is absolutely spectacular! 😁
Kalbarri is awesome and I can't wait to get back there to go on the Skywalk.
It’s so good! 😁
Deff the ‘Toasty’ victory walk out of the servo 💯satisfaction. I could smell it. Nothing better 🤩
Haha! He was pretty excited about his toastie 😂😂
The episode was awesome as always showing beautiful scenery etc etc etc BUT the best part today was seeing Miriam experience the whole missing family reality. We always see the good stuff you guys post and how wonderful your travels are together. Yes we know you miss family and friends but to see the raw emotions and the friendship and comfort from Donna was emotional. Safe travels.
We try so hard to keep things fun and exciting but sometimes it’s just so hard. We are so grateful to have such amazing friends on the road ❤️❤️❤️
Great Ep guys, fave part was the drone footage of the national park - amazing - good thing Chris didnt break the new controller 😂
Haha - I hope he doesn’t ever break the new one 😅🙏🏼
Thank you for sharing your life on the road. Absolutely love seeing your travels from a Birds Eye perspective of all the places you go.
Our pleasure! ❤️
We loved the whole episode, but if I had to choose a favourite part it would be Miriam and Donna being the dancing cows lol 😂 Keep up the great work guys
🐄 🐮😂
I love your channel it keeps things real. But Nature's Window and your pachants with the other tourists at that time illustrate your passion to bring quality content each and every week.
Keep up the GREAT WORK 👍
regards Duncan and Doreen Hislop
Thanks so much!! We love meeting fellow travelers 😁😁😁
Talking about family on the road, is everything. 👍
❤️😁🙌🏼
Great video guys. I loved Donna and her tap dancing cows.
Thanks 🙏🏼 haha she is a classic
the honesty about missing home, very brave Miriam 🥲
Thank you Gary. It can be so hard sometimes ❤️
Love the whole vid. Seeing Miriam’s emotions missing family and how friends become family 😢 . Having lost my Auntie, my Mum and my Dad in the last seven months you don’t realise how much you miss them until they are not around . Keep up the great work 🍻
It’s so true - leaving family is so hard!
Natures window and the skywalk are my favourite by far. What an amazing place. 👍🏻
Mine too!
We travel part time but always have a blast for a couple of 65 plus oldies. Kids grown up and doing their own thing but we do get to see them often. Miriam we get your tough Mother’s Day. We are going to Kalbarri in two weeks time for a break away from home. Been there lots over the years but not quite sure what to expect in town since the cyclone. I hear rebuild is slow, which is sad. It’s a great place to just slow down and enjoy. Looking forward to the skywalk. Glenn from Bunbury.
Thanks Glenn. Kalbarri is absolutely lovely - there are places still being rebuilt, but the town itself is looking good! 😁
the emotion and the red hat best bits by far
Sometimes it’s so hard to hide emotions. Haha how cool is the red hat 😁
Love the sky bridge, and thanks for continually updating accessibility to places.
Our pleasure!
Loved natures window, can’t wait to hit the road next year love you guys
Thanks so much! 😁🙏🏼
Love your real and raw emotion of missing family. Keep keeping it real guys. ❤
Thanks so much ❤️😁
The drone footage is just spectacular…. Yes you do meet “family” on the road, we met and travelled with several couples on our trip in Tassie and they have all visited since we got home. My late dad always said the travel was more about the people you meet, the scenery was the bonus. ❤❤ #suncoastcaravanservice
Couldn’t have said it better ourselves Jenny. Can’t wait to see you guys again soon ❤️❤️❤️
You made me cry😢 too, I feel for you missing the kids, love the red hat ❤
It can be pretty lonely sometimes 🥲
We loved your drone footage of Kalbarri, especially Nature's Window 😍
Thanks a lot 😊
Great video guys. Cheer up Miriam I’m sure the kids were missing you just as much. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Trish ❤️
Thanks the Skywalk is epic and you revealed it perfectly. Safe travels.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Your real love and emotion of missing your family, and you could see/hear Chris's emotions while he was talking about the situation. Safe travels ❤
It gets tough sometimes for sure 🩵🙏🏼
Awesome video. Loved the drone shots absolutely stunning. Thank you
Thank you very much!
Loved seeing natures window thank you for sharing and always going that extra mile to entertain us. You guys rock
Our pleasure! 😁😁😁
Awesome Sunday morning viewing as always.....
Thanks for sharing guys, have a good one 🤙👍
Cheers legend! Glad you enjoyed it
Kalbarri and the Shark Bay area are brilliant especially when you have the right weather. Tap dancing cows made me laugh
Yep!! Such an amazing spot.
Great episode once again guys. Hope Miriam was spoiled on Mother's Day to help compensate for missing family. Today I downloaded Campedia and going through the tutorials to learn how to use it. So far it looks great!
Haha yes he did.
Oh awesome. Hope you like it 😁
Love the openness you show, it’s not all beer and skittles on the road. Stay real, stay true and travel safe!!
Thanks 🙏🏼 we really appreciate it
Kalbarri is the best part of WA
Since we have been there changed a lot. You video is showing the best part and bringing our memory back. We are planning going next year. Thanks for showing beautiful parts of Australia, your job is excellent.❤😊
We absolutely loved this part of WA. Can’t wait to come back next year 🙌🏼😁
Thanks for sharing. Definitely adding some of those camps to our itinerary. Loved it all 🤙🏻🤙🏻
You’re welcome! So many amazing places to see here 😁😁
Feel for you Miriam, haven't seen my son for 5 years not by choice but I won't go into that, just breaks your heart, chin up, all the best to you both.xx
Oh no…I’m so sorry. Yeah it’s heart breaking ❤️😞
Another awesome video! Our favourite part was the drone footage of the coastal cliffs! Spectacular! I must say I haven’t seen these cliffs on any other videos I’ve watched. Well done! 👍🤩
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙌🏼😁
Wow another great video. We missed NATURES WINDOW when we did our lap 10 Years ago as it was closed. They must have been building that infrastructure. Lovely to finally see what we missed. The drone footage is amazing.
Oh really…make sure you get back there when you can. It’s amazing!!!
Nature's window looks awesome!
It really is!
So glad Miriam's seeing & enjoying the WOW FACTOR of Kalbarri & beautiful Western Australia.
In your own words Chris..."the best us yet to come". So pleased you really had a change of heart & didnt BOYCOTT BOYCOTT because of the border closure.
You really didn't know what you COULD HAVE MISSED!😂😂😂😂
OMG we are in love with WA!! ❤️😁
Best part of the video was the view through Natures Window
Awesome hey 👌🏼
Another great video guys; all of it. The raw emotion simply highlights just how much you are letting us all into your lives, which is special. I can’t wait for the day when I may bump into you. Chris, try to take better care of this drone controller! 😀😝
Thanks David. We really appreciate it buddy. Haha I’ll try my hardest 😁🙌🏼
Great video. It was great to see you guys chat about being on the road and being away from families and how you all support each other on days like Mothers Day. Miriam hope you enjoyed your Mothers Day as best you could. But I wanted to say we were in Kalbarri in 2022 and the flies at Natures window were next level. We are back there in 2024 and now have drone which I need to learn to use. Travel safe ❤️
Our pleasure! Live on the road away from family can be so hard sometimes. Might see you there next year, we’ll be back for sure.
Happy flying 🙌🏼
Great episode, guys.
We love Kalbarri..
Thanks!’ We do too 🙌🏼😁
Definitely the Kalbarri area & that epic view from the window 🔥🔥🔥🔥Absolutely stunning 🤩
We agree! Love this place ❤️
The scenery is amazing but the best part for me was Chris opening his new controller, he is like a kid in a candy store made me laugh, just an expensive piece of candy. 😊
Haha he is such a child at heart
I luv Pots Alley awesome rocks, small beach. Great fishing ❤
I do too 👌🏼
Hi guys the best part would have to be getting the new drone remote nothing like seeing a man that happy, bought tears to my eyes. Well done on all your hard work. 😁
Haha happy man alright 😂
Coastal views just spectacular!
So awesome hey
Great vid, I liked the relaxed pace and soulful music soundtrack thx.
Glad you enjoyed it
We learnt the hard way in our first 3 weeks on the road full-time how hard it is to be away from family. We lost our eldest uncle after he had a fall and we couldn't be there with family. We knew that these things will happen when we made the decision to travel but it was really hard when we hadn't been gone that long. Our solace is knowing that we are doing something Uncle Noel loved as he has done at least three laps of Aus. The bad days will be out weighed by the good and the experience's will be with us forever as is our family in our hearts.
❤️❤️❤️ go live life guys.
Your drone shots are so amazing 😍 Having the flying camera gives you a better view of were you are.
It really is! We love showing off places with it
Favourite part was seeing reality of traveling by showing real emotions which are usually not seen
It’s tough to hide sometimes 🙏🏼
@@AussieDestinationsUnknown agree, take care!
Great vid guys, just overall love your outlook on everything. Miriam's smile is killer, even through the tears of missing loved ones 👌
Thanks so much Mark ❤️
So good! Definitely meet some awesome people around the place!
Definitely!!
Great ep guys, how pretty is the natures window ❤️
It really is!
Awesome episode 😊Beautiful scenery 👏🏼 Thanks legends for sharing your travels 👌🏽 Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦
Thank you so much for your support 🙌🏼✌🏼😁
I think my favourite was natures window at Kalbarri in the latest episode. Hope I win the prize
Natures Window is incredible 😁
Great vid guys, you guys are so easy to watch i love it!!🙂🍻
Thanks so much!
Loved the mums day,1 crying and 1 cleaning her teeth.
Haha 😂
My hubby and I loved the scenery, especially the cliff faces, can't wait till we get to WA, never been north yet
So happy you enjoyed it guys ❤️😁
Stunning footage guys
Glad you enjoyed it
Another great video. Hope you had a great Mother’s Day even without your kids
Thank you! You too!
Chris getting the drone controller back like a little kid
Haha he is such a child…not sure he will ever grow up. 😁😎
Commenting as Shelley Bialon or A Rae of Travel.
I can relate to your breakdown as will be leaving some of my children home, although they are adults now it doesn’t make it easier.
Also the tap dancing cows , perfect description lol, have been kept awake my many a cattle truck whilst on the road. Ohh and the smell first thing in the morning…..just lovely 😢.
Leaving kids is so hard … leaving family is hard! But - we grieve, have a sad moment and then remember why we are doing what we are doing 🥰 🐮
WOW! What scenery we are looking so forward to this trip. Loved the "Natures Window" & the "Skywalk". Can't wait for the next one already...Thanks for all your efforts, love from the UK.🧡
More to come! So happy you enjoyed it 😁
What an awesome episode yet again. Favourite part is always seeing Chris and his antics. Miriam my wire feels for you and the missing of the family. Hopefully next year when we are full time in the road she will get used to it. A quick starlink call and she can see them all. Xx
Haha yes he loves he’s playing around and having a good old time.
Good on you guys. Yes contacting family is much easier these days but sometimes it still gets the better of you.
Thanks and see you on the road soon ❤️
The views around Kalbarri were absolutely amazing. I have been to Kalbarri many times but never have I seen just how beautiful it really is. The drone really makes the difference. Great all round video.
Glad you enjoyed it! Yep the drone throws a whole different perspective on things hey
cracked me up talking about how shark bay got its name,,... and the tomato on the toastie,... we all been there lol,. awesome drone work by the way...
😂😂😂 nothing like a boiling tomato down the chin
Hi guys , Kalbarri looks awesome that was the Favourite bit, feel the pain of missing family too 😢
We fell in love with Kalbarri ❤️
Love your shows guys.
Thanks 🙏🏼
The beautiful scenery around Kalbarri was wonderful, it is time for us to go back there again. The best bit of this episode was you guys keeping it real, missing family while on the road. Especially Miriam on mother's day, being a Mum without the kids on a special day ❤
Glad you enjoyed it! Yeah it can be so hard sometimes 😞❤️
The end because we don't have to see and hear Chris but sad that we want see and hear MIRIAM any more. 🥰
😂😂😂
Loved the whole video keep up the great work
My heart misses a beat seeing that again ❤ Your drone shots are so amazing 😍 We watched whales for hours the day we did the drive Love! Love! Love it 🥰 Thank you so much for sharing x
Glad you enjoyed it! ❤️❤️❤️
At the cliff under the sunrise shot !!but i love all your content even when you fill the beast up with unleaded 🤣😄✌✌✌✌
😂😂😂😂 don’t remind us!!!
Soph was a big fan of the ‘natures window’ and for me, the hot tip Chris gave about the tomato in the toasted Sanger while your in the car. Priceless information….. That stuff just can’t be taught 😂
Yep it’s a stunning place. Hope you guys get there one day.
Haha yep…you’ll learn some amazing life skill tips from me 😁😂
The Tap dancing cows 🐄
😂
I hope you're doing the stromatolites at hamlin pools. The boardwalk and plaques will explain it all, but it really is something special 👌
We ended up spending the night before easter in 2009 in the bay across from the billabong roadhouse, as we were low on fuel and got there 15 minutes after they shut 🤣🤣
Luckily the easter bunny found us and the young fella had an easter egg hunt in the bush 🤣🤣 he thought it was brilliant!
You've really brought back some memories there. Thankyou 🙂
Haha awesome!! Glad we could bring back these memories for you 😁❤️
Thanks for sharing 👍🏼
You’re welcome 😁
*Miriams tears on Mothers Day of course. Nothing better than hugging your kids, I cant imagine enduring that distance from my babies and grandbabies on that day, or even a Birthday. I am a big sook. 😢 The drone is such a unique look at everything too, loved it.❤️🇦🇺🦘
Tell me about it. It’s so hard sometimes ❤️
Glad you liked it 😁
I enjoyed the whole video, sorry I didn't have a favourite. Thanks for the great information.
Glad you enjoyed it! 😁😁😁
My favourite part of the video is that Chris managed to keep his new DJI controller intact 😂
😂😂😂 let’s see how long it lasts
Loved the drone view of the cliffs, natures window and skywalk, great tip regarding the best time to get there, not before sun up😜 Will be a couple of years before we can get out that way to explore. Can’t wait. Safe travels to everyone.
Haha yes - skywalk for sunrise then natures window 🤪
You both sitting at nature's window, Beforehand was funny with all the tourists turning up in front of camera😅
Omg it was crazy 😂
We loved the music
Thanks 🙏🏼
Really enjoyed this episode so looking forward to when we return to WA. We unfortunately didn't have the time to spend too much time in this area last time but intend to do WA at a more leisurely pace. Keep up the good work. 🤟
Glad you enjoyed it! Hope you back to experience this place again 🙌🏼
Great video, at the start I was trying to show and explain to my wife how you’d get in and out of that truck , then you do a demo the side steps winning 🤙
Haha it’s easy 🤟🏼😁
My beloved had that moment too when we were in WA and our girl (24) was back in NSW, she’s still our little girl ❤
On a lighter note, if that truck was any higher, you’d need a step to get to your step 😅
Yeah it can be so difficult.
Haha the next one might be even higher 😉
