Hey guys Look forward to your Tanami trip Great journey, and thank you for sharing your experiences. All sorts can happen on road trips, good and bad Stay safe and well
Thanks Jenny…. It’s true, you get good and bad things happen, we feel lucky that it didn’t turn into an accident 👍🤩 Thanks for watching, hope you have a great week
Did you realise that Boab tree is the old 'prison tree'? There is soooooo much to see, and so much history and many stories to be told, between Broome and Halls Creek if you know where to look. Around Halls Creek there is 'China Wall', Caroline Pool, and 'Old Town', not to mention a few Stations that the locals might be heppy to tell you about (you just have to ask/spend a day or two). It's a beautiful part of the world, and especially the Kimberley, but most folk just pass through and miss the lot.
No we didn’t realise this one was a prison tree, we’ve been to the one near Wyndham. We’ve just done a lot of The Kimberley, started in Kununurra (did Secret Springs track etc) then went across The Gibb River Road, out to Mitchell Falls Plateau and stopped at numerous gorges, Tunnel Creek etc, you can scroll back on our vids to see…. This time we wanted to do the Tanami Desert and Simpson but thanks for the info 👍
@@turtletrackstravels Interesting to see what you think. We had a nice early morning chat with you guys at Ivanhoe crossing. We did the Tanami up and back in our Sprinter Van, and thought it was quite interesting. Smoother roads on the way back. Pity they are turning it into a proper road. It won't an adventure any more, just another road chockers with caravans.
@WeHitTheRoad-qo8wn hi guys, great to hear from you. We think the same, it won’t be an adventure anymore when they’ve completed it.We loved the adventure, remoteness and the deafening silence at night 🤩👍
Hi guys 👋🏻 good idea doing an hour about driving long distance…that’s a good idea but not sure about doing some press-ups on the side of the road 😂 gas did a cracking job on the wheel arch repair 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Can I ask what video edit program you use ? And do you use a GoPro to film ? Thanks guys enjoyed the video 🤗 can’t wait for the Tanami vid 🤗
Hi Guys, glad you enjoyed it, yes we use a GOPro to film everyday and for editing we just use the Free version on InShot App, it’s really easy to use once you make a few mistakes LOL 😜but just play around with it, good luck 😉
lol 😂 yes it’s odd, apparently it’s due to vandalism. I just googled it and found this article www.broomead.com.au/news/the-kimberley-echo/fitzroy-crossing-ngiyali-roadhouse-install-cages-around-petrol-bowsers-amid-vandalism-and-violence-c-11701234#:~:text=%E2%80%9CAt%20night%2C%20we'd,keep%20this%20place%20much%20safer.%E2%80%9D
@@turtletrackstravels Thanks for that! Just living in multicultural Melbourne where they steal everything and the petrol pumps here are still safe so far.
I’ve told you before, if you were a real 4x4er and had no mudflaps that roo would have just shot out under the guard with no damage.. but no, you wouldn’t listen. 🙈 On a serious note, there is no worse bird than a cockatoo.
It’s illegal to remove mud flaps on a tray type body vehicle….. mudflaps are required on vehicles where they are part of the wheel guard system, such as on some motorbikes and vehicles with a tray type body. (Queensland Government)
Only asking as there are so many people from overseas on our roads...so many car accidents..l do not know about where you are..but they are bad drivers d own here

Guys, is that the new bridge on the side that you went past?? If so, are you over 12 months behind posting your trip???
We are 3 months behind 👍🤩
Must be another new bridge then.
Keep up the great videos and travel safe.
Yeah, I think the new bridge over the Fitzroy River opened a year ago but they’re doing lots of other road improvements 👍🤩
What part of England are you two from?
We’re both from Kent (south east ) 👍🤩
@@turtletrackstravelsme too👍
So l notice an accent..are you travelling our country and going back or are you permanent residents...aah from England
Hi Sharon, we’ve lived in Australia since 2006, yes you’re correct we’re originally from England 👍

@ that’s why no one removes mud flaps, they just fall off… 😉
Then you have to put them back on, you cannot drive around without them like you suggest

Unfortunately, there seems to be bad drivers everywhere you go these days. Stay safe 👍
