      @OnePackWanderers  5 місяців тому +15

      Intuitively that’s what we thought because it’s definitely how it would be pronounced in other English speaking countries. And then we looked up several Australian vloggers who all pronounced it Ex-MOUTH.
      Now I have no idea what to think 😂

      ​@@diannecain1 ​Yes but we have a bit of a history of pronouncing places how they are spelled and not always accurate. Also, ​ @OnePackWanderers you are going to experience the same when you eventually reach Tasmania, if you ever visit Lachlan, Tasmania you will hear different pronunciations.

    Please don’t feel self conscious about posting budget friendly content. I just came across your profile a few days ago and I’ve probably watched between 10-20 while sick in bed! Your videos are authentic, not overly edited and glamorised, I think people crave content like this + budget friendly is authentic and realistic too! Especially given the cost of living crisis, your content is relatable and deserves more views. I think you guys should put an option where people can donate if they choose to, honestly, you guys deserve it, you’re a young couple, and you both compliment each other. Thanks for the content 🏆🏆

    One of the things I love about Australia are the little self-served vegetable stalls, where not only do people not nick (that's shop lift in Australian) the vegetables, they don't take the box with all the money either. This is the standard that societies must reach to be safe. It's a small compensation for having all the other things in the natural environment that will kill you on your journey.

    Just for a piece of trivia for you. Exmouth was known a while back for having the largest American Naval Submarine base in Australia. The town was created to house and supply them. So the place used to be FULL of Americans. 😀

    In Australia there are websites or places you can go for half price tickets to tourist attractions and accomodation in Australia. Also entertainment as well. A lot of Australians in times past have used this as an option, because a lot of Australians have to be budget conscious. At present there is a housing crisis. In times of crisis people go on holidays and travel, particularly if they are homeless. Its easy to find these places online, just make sure its a reputable site. Glad to see you back in Australia, hope you have a lovely time.❤ Bob's your uncle and Fanny's your aunt. Sunsets and sunrises on the water, always gorgeous in Australia, and I get to see beautiful sunsets from my bedroom window, nothing like it. We always we need to remember what we have.

    I went to Exmouth in 1988 and was on the first bus to ever go there according to the driver who said that only Bus Australia went there and this was the very first trip. The only passengers on the bus were myself and girlfriend. When we got to the town, it was full of Americans and American vehicles. We cycled to Turquoise Bay and were the only ones there, but I had sunburn so couldn't swim in that amazing place. The aerials were there and that site was occupied by the US military. There were heaps of kangaroos and emu along the road. It was truly amazing.

    You mentioned that it’s dangerous to drive at night in Australia . . without elaborating. I once drove across the Nullarbor and passed an amazing site. Black skid marks extending for 100 metres then curling off to the left. At the end of the skid marks was a pile of six large dead kangaroos. Clearly a large truck ploughed through a mob of kangaroos dashing across the highway ( at speed) and collected a number of them on the bull bars up front and he locked up his brakes, came to a screeching stop, then backed away, and continued his nighttime journey. Had that been a car or even a 4x4 it would have been a major collision.
    Best to travel in daylight hours when the Roos are resting. Camels are also a danger.

    I watched that sunset about 3 years back when WA was locked in, and we all did staycations! It is spectacular. There are green turtles on a deserted beach accessed by a small gate on the coastal road about halfway between the American Naval Communication Station Harold E. Holt and Turquoise Bay. Yes there are Dingoes which surprised me to!

    When we did the 13,000km drive from Darwin to Sydney via WA with our four young kids, Coral Bay and Exmouth were two of our favourite destinations. Coral Bay has kept its natural charm because development was deliberately halted, so camping and caravans are the only options. From there you can sail out to see manta rays, dugongs, whale sharks and other marine creates. At Exmouth we stayed in the former American military intelligence base when bunk rooms were offered (1998). At night we would return to the beach to watch out for turtles, which would come onshore to lay their eggs.

    Port Hedland is/was magic for sunsets. I lived there a couple of times in the '80's and saw some absolutely breathtaking sunsets. I think a lot of it was due to the iron ore dust emanating from the port, a side effect of loading the bulk carriers.

  • @johnn4842

    FYI - the towers are a joint Aussie/US naval base for low frequency communications with US nuclear submarines. The central tower stands about 1300 feet.

    Thanks again, so sad you didn't get more time in Coral Bay guys but glad you had a snorkelling experience anyway in Exmouth. So many incredible sunsets await you as you head up the Western Coast. Fingers crossed Broome's Cable Beach does the right thing for you. It's a well known thing here that after Mother's Day in May Aussie caravanners etc migrate North so accommodation, campsites (free or otherwise) are hard to get and the costs dramatically increase. Australia IS expensive to travel around hence many of us go to Asia..lol Looking forward to your future offerings and adventures in the Pilbara plus. Happy Trails :)

    You're hitting all the spots my husband and I visited, down to the literal same fruit stand in Carnarvon. And I gotta say, you're making me want to go back and do it all over again. The snorkeling, the sunset, the rock wallabies, the red rocks...?!?! Ugh, so good. If you ever come back and you have more time to book ahead, you HAVE to check out some of the epic station stays (camping/glamping/cabins at former sheep shearing stations). My favorites were Bullara Station near Exmouth (wood-fired showers under gum trees) and Wooramel Station close to that Billabong truck stop (hot springs under the stars).

    Lovin the vids, you guys have really adopted the Aussie vibe. We found that, the more rural you travel, the further in advance you need to book places, not surprised that Exmouth Holiday Park was booked out for a year. So many people are doing the lap now and small places can't handle the volume. Can't wait for the Tassie vids, we just got back from travelling around Tassie for 2weeks in a camper. Looking forward to seeing seeing where you go and your experience, Tassie blew us away and we can't wait to go back.

    I love Exmouth ,the water is so blue and clean. Twelve years ago it was popular but we could book a couple of weeks out and we were lucky enough to get the last spot at the National Park overlooking the beach for 5 days. We did the reef swim twice on clear days and saw sea turtles. You can wade out to the water in Exmouth just 50 metres and it's shallow and full of colourful fish. The sunsets in that part of the coast are unbelievable.
