Hi guys from tarneit vic ,my 79 yr old mum just loves watching your videos,she allways has a laugh
And john you need to buy another shirt hahaha
When Jon loves a shirt 👕 he wears it until it is thread bare lol. Thank you for commenting and please say thanks to your mum too. 😊
OMG....you two are a hoot! 😅
I've done the gorge tour twice, but now I feel I've done it again with you both. Thanks again for the entertaining and funny tour of Nitmiluk. Safe travels guys!
Glad you enjoyed it! It truly felt magical cruising down the gorge
Good on you for walking. With injuries you are working your whole body more than ever to compensate so you would have def felt the heat so much more than most. So glad you saw some scenery on your walk. Wonderful, honest videos :) You guys "discuss" just like my hubby and I too.
This certainly pushed both of us to our limits. Thanks for watching
Have a great trip away to Japan, I’m enjoying your videos. Thanks.
Thanks, will do! We can't wait to get to Japan to experience something different
Enjoy your Japan trip… beautiful place…very polite people…apart from people in the hospitality sector few people speak English…which presents some funny moments….they really want to help but unable to communicate there was a lot of smiling and nodding from all parties😂. Japanese food, loved it. Our favourite place Kyoto where we stayed in a traditional ryokan…..enjoy👍
I’m from nz, living in Oz from Deception Bay and now been living on the road for
2 1/2 years in my campervan, love it. Don’t want a house at this point and time, I’m 77. Cheers Judy
Thats awesome you are travelling around at 77 years old. An inspiration ✨️
Thanks for watching 👀
We have a good chuckle watching you guys. Great scenes and informative videos and down to earth. I've been in Moorebank 2170 since coming from England in 1969. We hope to start caravanning later this year. We fairly desperately want to sell up and move but don't know where to. Have to start travelling to see where over 55s communities will suit. Cheers!!
Thanks for watching! We know Moorebank well. My family have good friends that lived on Jack O'Sullivan Drive for many many years starting around 1970's, funnily enough they also were from England and Jon lived in Moorebank for a few years as a little boy (can't remember the street). We were in an over 50's but didnt like the Body Cooperate side of things, feel to young for it all.. Good luck in your decision and enjoy your travels
@@onlyleavingfootprints thanks a lot for the reply. I really want to be living in our caravan, exploring this great land, just like you are. Hopefully the planets will align later in the year for us to begin with just a nsw south Coast trip. We think 3 months away should tell us what to leave at home or take with us for longer trips further away. Anyway thanks again and wishing all the very best for your travelling!!
Humpty Doo Nt 🙂 Loved watching your tours of my backyard 🙂
Thats fantastic thanks for watching 👀
Can’t wait to get up there. It looks so beautiful and your filming is good. Sensible walking with the nets and snakebite kit. John you crack me up lol 😂 I heard that Tracy 😂😂😂 The banter is just thesame as us trying to sort out bush walks in the middle of nowhere tears in my eyes from laughing. You film it I will watch it. Great entertainment worth the walk and better to go down the stairs than up ol 😂. I am from Wirrabara in the southern Flinders Ranges. Beautiful country. Hope to see you in our part of the world one day
Hahahaha I think your the only one that heard my little tongue in cheek remark lol. Thanks once again for your support
Love you two 😊your walk was making me sooo TIRED 😂 Your home is your van and Australia is your backyard Enjoy 😊
😊 thank you I dont think we have recovered lol. appreciate your support
Malta is on my bucket as my grandfather was Maltese. Love the videos guys.
Our plan is to stay in The town of Attard. A beautiful little town. Cannot wait to get there. Thanks for joining us on our journey
Love the views and chats. Live in Western Sydney, too noisy but has facilities we need. We will head up North but in winter. Have fun guys.
We are both originally from South Western Sydney and visit often. Very busy, I agree. Appreciate you watching 👀
Well done on the walk, and keeping it real showing your 'banter'.😂
Thank you so much we appreciate your comment
We absolutely love you pair. You make us laugh each Ep. Especially when you get the selfie stick Jon. We expect the facial reactions every time so don't stop cause its funny Lol. It is Tanya and Jason Waight here. You know us already. We are in Bungendore NSW which is just outside of Canberra. (remember i saw your doppelganger in Aldi Queanbeyan LOL) Don't move here or Canberra it is SOOOO EXPENSIVE. But we would LOVE for you to come camping here or somewhere close by and we would come join you. We'll bring beers 🙂You won't be shy with us cause I can talk too LOL. BTW you guys did well doing this walk. I too was lost from the directions. You did it through the pain and made it back, without being rescued hahaha. Looking forward to seeing Darwin.
Hey there, thanks so much for your ongoing support and comment. Yes we will catch up one day
Love to watch you travelling through Japan. Jon can get a heap of new shirts. I enjoy listening to the history you guys find in Cemeteries. Cheers from Adelaide.
Glad you like them! Are you Subscribed to our cemetery channel ? Historic Cemeteries Australia 🇦🇺
Thanks for watching 👀
Will check your channel out.
Well done guys. Thanks for sharing. 😊
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching
Great episode again. Love you guys, so hilarious 😂 I reckon we would get along so well. Hope we will catch up somewhere on the road. We’ll be making our way upto to do the Gibb in May.
We’re from Melbourne but would love to move to WA.
Thanks so much for your comment and support. Western Australia is beautiful (well we didn't like the wind lol) but we are liking SA alot as well.
Great video, you two cracked me up. Reminds me of my hubby & I on our trips around Oz.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching
Put a pinch of salt into your water it will help on very hot day, I live in Cairns and yes I feel the heat
Good idea about the salt. I think its just Australia at the moment, heat is extremely bad everywhere it seems or we are just to use to the Sunshine Coast lol. Thanks for watching
Love your episode. ❤
I hope you're replacing your electrolytes after all that sweating.
You don't want to get heat stroke
Hmmmm no we didn't drink any electrolytes, I have to say I am pretty slack with doing that. Thanks for watching 👀
Thank you once again for a very entertaining video.. safe travels to your next destination 😊💕👍🏽
Our pleasure! We appreciate you tuning in each week
Clarification. Ive driven with the van twice. Once on a bush track and once on the road through Kakadu. Thats enough 🤣
You guys walked up to the lookout the wrong direction 😅
Hahahaha ok ok twice then. Still not going to be driving ours anytime soon lol
Another great video guys we are from Redland Bay we are off to Europe in 8 days then back in van when we get back for the winter you will love Japan
Oh my we are very jealous of you going to Europe. Have so much fun. We are excited for Japan. Thanks for watching
Great video again guys, take my hat off to you both going North in summer and the west season close.
but going against the mob migration it has its benefits, " no crowds " 👍
stay safe
Ray
Thanks Ray, it has been a challenge to say the least and I probably wouldn't recommend it but in saying that, yes the less crowds makes it good too. Thanks for watching
Another great video with lots of scenery, comic and banter👍. At Hornsby. Originally from the Central Coast like you with my wife from Crows Nest. We did similar tours to you when we were in the NT in 2020 after we escaped from NSW firing Covid. Looking forward to the next instalments. Enjoy and stay safe.
Hornsby, sooooo bust lol. Thanks so much for watching
Love your videos, great content and you too are real down to earth people. If your looking for a new home, dont move to the Gold Coast..way to busy! Great if your young. THANKS 😊
Thank you so much. Oh no way , just sold in the Sunny Coast, wouldn't dream of going to Goldy nowadays.
Horsham Victoria nice size town not to big or to small
Will have to put it on the list as a come see town. Thanks for watching 👀
Hi from Brunswick Junction in the south west of WA. Our son and daughter in law lived in Katherine (both in the Airforce) and we’ve done this gorge tour a couple of times and it just beautiful. Last time we were up was for the birth of our granddaughter and we did a dinner tour, I would highly recommend, the gorge changes so much.
Oh wow! That would be a nice cruise. I wish we had more time to spend in Katherine, next time lol. Thanks for watching
Watching from Willowbank Qld Inbetween the Raaf base and the raceway. I think Jon likes holding the selfie stick. You will love Japan. And do the cruise from Singapore. We love Singapore.
Oh we love Singapore as well, only spent 3 days there previously but geez cannot wait to get back there. We saw the cruise terminal (back in 2018) and instantly both said we would love to cruise from there. Cannot wait to get to Japan as well. Thanks so much for watching us
hi guy's you both make me laugh we are from Homebush Sydney 15yrs to many ffff people we brought our 4x4 a month ago getting it all kitted out then to buy the caravan .buy the way Tracie you should have tripped that woman running past 😂
I hear you about the people, will never live in Sydney again. Hahaha now that would have been funny with the running lady (no, really it wouldn't lol). Thanks for watching
Gee I thought use were starting to hallucinate in parts of your vid.

Hhahahaha I think we were lol. Thanks for watching
Great video enjoy Darwin 😊
Thank you, we will. Have alot planned, stay tuned
I want to hear more about Jon having to wear a hair net🤔
Hhahahaha now there would be a story lol. Thanks for watching
Bit late to add. You asked to mention where those who watch come from. Me, I am from Rockhampton
Never to late. Welcome to the channel and Thank you for watching and commenting. We have only ever driven through Rocky, got as far as that roundabout with the cows on it then turned left to head through to Barcaldine. We will get back there one day
@onlyleavingfootprints 🤣We are "Beef capital". Mt. Archer is good. To veiw the area. Mt. Morgan that views the other side. Old gold mine Mt. Morgan is.
Hi. I watch your videos weekly. A little off topic but, I don't see a lot of slide-outs on trailers in Australia. Do they make them there, or are they not popular? Here in the U.S, they are on almost all RV's. Our current camper has 1 but our last one had 3. Thanks.
Hi there. There are more slide outs being seen around our travels but compared to regular caravans they aren't very popular. Thank you so much for watching 👀
Watching from Ferny Hills
Thanks for watching, appreciate the comment
PS….we’re still from Camden 😂
Oh we know Camden well.
Stayed at Poplars caravan park and been booked there but cancelled because of flooding twice lol
We are really looking forward to that trip thank you 😊

We love watching you two but as I am half deaf it would make it much more enjoyable it you had a microphone on
Thanks for the feedback. We do have mics and at this stage it was hard getting into the habit of using them. We get better I promise (well at times we still forget but we wear them more then not. It will be awhile before you notice) In the meantime would it be easier if I try to figure out how to put sub titles on our videos ? Let me know and I will research. Thanks so much for watching
Build up your arm mussles with all them flys.
Haha you would think we had bulging muscles now lol. Thanks for watching
When was this filmed.....not sure how far behind you put out your videos?
Hi, thanks for watching 👀
We are about 3 months behind.
She wears the balls in the relationship. I feel sorry for Jon.
Hahahaha its Jon here. You are very wrong there, editing is a great tool mate. You have no idea how much I hassle Trac, she is actually extremely tolerant. We have an extremely equal relationship. Thanks for watching
