Wow what a trip as long as the flys don’t cart you away …………. A sensational if not fast , trip .thanks for taking us along and look forward to what is to come .
That was certainly a very spectacular 'shortcut', but on the other hand being bogged to the axles on the Central Road would probably add to your travel time somewhat too! The stats were interesting - ouchies. You'll probably find the new tow vehicle will be about the same. Kingoonya was once made famous in a Redgum song called 'The Last Frontier'. When I was a very young and impressionable woman serving in our military it was one of their songs that left me with a thirst to see more of the outback. ua-cam.com/video/5STCeEkJYC4/v-deo.html Hopefully you managed a little break while getting those licences 🙂
How cool, had never heard 'The Last Frontier' before, interesting to hear Alice referred to as a support hub for pine gap! How times change! We has a great chat with the publican at Kingoonya Hotel but never record that stuff, was good to get back into the NT too! 😀👍
@@VetinaVan Brings back a lot of memories, that song. There were a group of four of us posted to Adelaide who were huge Redgum fans. One gig at The Red Lion pub ended up with dates being mixed up and a very late correction, and I think there were probably ten people there. To their credit Redgum still went on and opened with 'welcome to Redgum's secret gig'. It was a fantastic night. Must see if The Old Lion is still around on our next trip to Adelaide! Enjoy your time back in the NT. Looking forward to your next episode.

Haha, yup, the flies were pretty bad, but you get used to them. Was a long week in the car, was so good to stop in Alice for a while! 👍😄
Lovely video Marcus, Tania and family 🎉. Have been following you from pre-covid initial travel days
Thanks Dan, we look back at some of those older videos and it feels like a lifetime ago, over 4 years now! So glad we followed this path. 😀😀🍻🍻👍
