In this episode, we travel in our converted Ford transit campervan, to Nowra NSW, Australia. We stayed one night paid camping at Nowra Riverside Tourist Park and one-night free camping. Whilst in town we caught up with family. In the episode, we show you some of the things you can do in town.
Below lists some of the places we visited whilst in Nowra:
Fleet Air Arm Museum
Meroogal house
Bens Walk
Nowra Riverside Tourist Park
Hanging Rock Lookout
Punch the Ploughman
Nowra fresh
Pet Stock Narara
BCF Narara
FLEET AIR ARM MUSEUM
Dedicated to all those who through duty and sacrifice served their nation as members of the Fleet Air Arm, the Museum seeks to tell their story through sharing our unique collection of aircraft, artifacts, and memorabilia.
In the early 1970s, a small energetic team of Navy volunteers started collecting relics from around HMAS Albatross, including five obsolete RAN aircraft, which became the foundations of the Fleet Air Arm Museum, established in 1974.
Today, the RAN Fleet Air Arm Museum is one of the largest regional aviation museums in NSW, containing over 30 aircraft and numerous aviation artefacts tell the story of Australian Naval Aviation and the development of the Royal Australian Navy's Fleet Air Arm.
MEROOGAL HOUSE
Meroogal House, was built from 1885 to 1886. This delightful timber house, with its 'gothic' trimmings, is a charming testament to early days and early ways.
Meroogal is a house that was greatly cherished by its owners. It was passed through the hands of four generations of women from the same family. The women led busy and fulfilled lives and their daily routines encompassed domestic chores and the pursuit of their own genteel interests and talents. Furniture, household objects, diaries, letters, scrapbooks, photographs and clothes allow a very personal insight into a more private world of the family.
It is unusual for a house to be occupied by the same family for such a length of time, even in rural areas. Meroogal has survived to make its contribution to the study of our social history.
BENS WALK
Bens Walk is a great place to step out and stretch your legs during a visit to Nowra. The walk loops around the Shoalhaven River, through its gorges, forests, and grassy shores.
The walk begins at the Nowra Showground, where you can enjoy a barbecue, and superb elevated views of the river and mountains from Hanging Rock.
The complete track provides a leisurely return walk of about 5.5 kilometres taking around two hours. A short return walk from the footbridge to the Showground and Hanging Rock takes around 10 minutes.
A suspension bridge provides a fun crossing of the river and gives access to Depot Farm Reserve and its picnic area.

Great Vlog guys ,hope you shopped at the best Shopping Centre 🤣😂 Great location by the river. Lots of beautiful original homes in Nowra that have been beautifully restored , especially on the West side of the highway. HMAS Penguin is a great base, and at Jervis Bay is HMAS Creswell the Navy Officer Training Base, views are spectacular. Seems you enjoyed your visit. The Major fires in 2019 were so close and roads in and out of town were closed at some times during the fires. We had people travelling through town sleep overnight in the centre Stockland Nowra on New Years Eve, the Centre Managment team, had juice for the kids and a glass of Sparkling for the Adults, all who were very grateful as there was no other place for them to shelter. Wonderful people call Nowra home 👏🏻👍🏻♥️🙏🏻🙋🏻♀️🇦🇺

Your pasta dish looks delicious! Nice job 😊
Thanks SOC, I think it's an easy one to replicate it :) Adam
Guys, never keep garlic in a plastic container. Garlic and onion are powerful drawers and will pull out the chemicals in the plastic. Keep in a small glass jar instead. Thank you for this vid. I went to High School in Nowra about 45 years ago.....
Thanks for the tip Rae, the episode would have felt like a flashback for you. Thanks for checking the episode out. We really appreciate it. Regards Deano
Such a great video guys... I was a bit late being mother's day sorry. I loved it all except the fish/meat shop... not my thing haha I'm vegetarian 😂 loved the walk, old house, camp ground with the bats. What a beautiful town. I had some laughs with Adams life jacket demo and the horse Diesel in its get up. You guys eat some yummy food! Thankyou and see you on the next one 😊🌻

Our home town. Well we grew up in Bomaderry a part of Nowra. And our dad was based at HMAS albatross and retired in 1985 & I did 4yrs our of high school work experience at albatross from 1992
Hi Ross, it'll be a great town to grow up in - no too big but not small either in my opinion, and thank you to men and women who served, like your father, with our Country's interest in mind. Deano
@@kingdeanoadventures Yes it wasn't really the best for myself and my brother. As it was pretty much like Jim Carreys movie the Trueman show
Way Awesome!!
Hi again Art, glad you liked this episode too. Deano

Ah I must visit that bakery next time we're in NSW ❤ Adam must have loved that
Dean are you as tall as Adams brother? 😅
Hi Sarah, very similar to Adam's brother. His brother has more brawn then me :) Adam was the runt of the family, so he's quite small in comparison. Deano
HMAS Sydney was also known as the Vung Tau taxi. It took troops to Vietnam.
Hi David, ah.... I can see how it got it's name! Love how the Aussie's will rename everything - adds character! Deano
