Hi everyone, Thanks for reading our blog & your comments. We didn’t make our fortune at the bookmakers in Birdsville, perhaps, it was our less than scientific approach to racehorse selection.

Hi everyone, We came out of the Bungle Bungles & camped at Spring Creek again. The next morning, we travelled up to Warmun Roadhouse & took a 45-minute helicopter flight over the Bungle Bungles which was fantastic & expensive but no regrets!   After our flight over the Bungle Bungles we drove for two hours […]
