For March flies pick up a spray can of really cheap hairspray ie black and gold, you spray the March flies while they are flying and they fall to the ground due to the lacquer in the product, it will be a hoot with the kids. Great show guys love every episode
Love the effort you are going through to produce such quality videos, showing off all the hidden gems 💎 in this great land. Always On point👌with the aerial footage , 8:23 , mate, 🤣🤣 poor Bec.
Hi guys Always luv your vids. My friends and I used to go to Teewah and double island point nearly every weekend during the mid to late 70s in our hj45s and camp on the beach at no charge, and I think the barge cost was $8 return. We always and still do take our rubbish home with us as there were no bins on the beach. We would park in the middle of the beach and go fishing for Taylor and dart and have a couple of frothies ( we only drank from cans because you can squish them down and take them home.) with very little traffic if any at all, even on weekends. We started a family in the early '80s so the ute had to go. The late '80s rolled along and we had 3 kids, so we thought we would buy another 4b. We went back to Teewah, Rainbow, Double Island Point, and even Fraiser Island and found it had changed so much. Hooligans. Rubbish everywhere. The kids nearly got run over by speedsters. So we started going to Morton Island and it was like the mid-70s. Not any more!!! We are Grandparents now so we use the 4b to tow the boat and it is getting harder to get away from the Wankers, now they are buying boats and Jetskis. Sorry for the Vent
PETER CHARLES thanks for watching mate. I feel ya pain with the amount of wally’s getting around. So much disrespect for the campsites and other people. It’s sad hey
Always a thumbs up if I could it would be 2 for showing the kids the right thing to do with the rubbish it will stuff spots like that for everyone around Australia , love your work guys👍
Recently discovered your Vlogs - very professionally produced. They give a real flavor of such travels by regular people rather than the usual fluffy sanitized stuff on normal TV. Keep up the good work! Great work with drones also!
Yes! Thank you for cleaning up all that rubbish and teaching your kids to do so too! We were raised the same way by our Dad and as kids we thought it unfair to clean up everyone else’s garbage, but to this day, we still hate littering and do our best to leave places cleaner than when we arrive. Love your videos and family. Wish we could go there someday! 😊
Another great video,good tip for hitching up the van, I have a checklist I laminated for inside van and outside, saves a lot of drama, leaving the TV aerial up or leaving the handbrake on, keep up the good work
Hi guys, been a while since I last posted. Have new grand baby 👍😎We have not missed a show, you guys are doing great and we tell all our van friends to watch even our kids (men) are watching, thanks so much for all the tips advice and mate after 38 years of marriage still learning on what to avoid saying or doing to the bride so you don't get that look. Keep wearing the prawn shirt ...man gotta be free...keep going and we' ll keep supporting you..you guys are wonderful...all the best
Thanks for this. It renewed old memories. Not been up to Teewah beach for 15 years or so. It just got so busy and full of lunatics on the weekends it spoilt the whole show. I sold my 4wd and never got another one, one day when I win lotto I will... 👍👍👍
The march flies got us good when we were up that area of the world when we were kids! It's one of my big memories from that trip hahaha. From Victoria, we don't get them down here they do up there! Great video guys!
Loving the vid so far! We took our van up and camped at Teewah a few weeks ago and the conditions were mint. It’s crazy we collected over a garbage full of rubbish as well just around our camp site from other campers. So disheartening to see!
Hey guys, that was awesome. been up there a few times myself with a few mates, and yes you get some wayward people up there who leave their mark e.g., rubbish, but as you say if everyone did their bit to keep Australia beautiful it would make a better place. love your trips keep up the good work.
I'm so enviyours of you guys, you get to so many awesome camp sites/spots, here in the UK we have nothing like those you guys get. My set up is only a small 2 berth van which has rear end bathroom, myself and wife love getting away but never get enough trips. Neil, Chatham, Kent, England.
Had the same hook up problem with a tractor trailer. I was moving beer in kegs from brewery to brewer, got distracted by police checking me out from gate (was 3am). Forgot to drop the legs on the trailer so pulled out with the legs up 😊 26 tone of beer in kegs and every one exploded when it dropped on the floor.
So good to see you bang on about rubbish and teaching the kids and great to see you using Azzas Red Roads gear, bust out your fire pit. Great vid as usual👍
my favorite way when im camping with my mates who have kids i offer 5 cents per item of rubbish to each kid to clean up the beach teaches a good work ethic and to keep camp sites clean and in my opinion its money well spent
Trip In A Van - RoadTrip Australia Series cheers bud i just think it’s a nice little way for the kids to earn a little bit of money and clean up the environment which is adults get to enjoy a drink 😜
Cool camping up at my local, LOVE the place. Wish i knew u were here would have popped in to say hi. Absolutely stunning place best time when no ones around (week days) Sad thing is unfortunately over the years it gets hammered over the weekend by piss heads that go up to just party untill ya drop..i have come across needles in the sand and will find squashed cans in firepits that havent been cleared out. Glass from smashed bottles in the sand it can be bloody shit at times..Back in the day we use to dig pits but always carry Portable shitters as the dumping facilities are at freshwater so the place can stay prestine..Would love the council to ban crapping in the dunes and digging holes etc. ANY way rant over!! LOVE ya got to visit my hood and keep the magic work!! DI is the place to hang out during the day for sure especially when the wind is howling in at camp site🖒🖒🖒🖒
We camp there a bit with our van too , the grass is super fragile growing in sand so we don’t drive or park van on the grass, keeps it nice for others and protects the dunes , as usual -great episode 🤠🤙🏼
Sorry we missed you, it’s nice to mention that the beach drive from Noosa is limited to 60 kph and keep an eye out for other camping on the beach as young ones tend to dart out at any time. Also explain the best time to drive on any beach, eg at low tide and drop tyre pressures all round. Ps look out for rbt for the beach is a public road, police will love you.
You were lucky to have it so good, the whole place is full of grubs all weekend now its a bad spot to go camping as you just dont know what mongrel your going to run into, we only go in the weekdays now as when its quite its a fantastic spot
I would like to congratulate you and the kids going around picking up some grubs garbage. I do this too, I will make sure I add this into my RUclips channel to see if we can get everyone to do this too. You are setting a perfect example to your children, they are going to learn so much more learning life skills amongst other things educating on the road than stuck in a classroom
Slice Kiwifruit into thin slicers and spread over the meat for half hour then take off and salt and pepper like you did , the natural enzyme breaks down the protein and connective tissues of meat, and tenderize it.
Another awesome trip , were actually getting ready to fly back from Thailand and after watching the news life back home really seems to suck, the Coronavirus, is going to keep my wife and I in isolation oh well another 2 weeks but this time it's for safety reasons wife and I at this stage are free of any symptoms and we have been so so safely conscious, anyway fingers crossed. Oh and I feel like I've been kicked in the balls but more of a figure of speech lol.
Woah hot off the press! Feeling rusty after a 4am finish last night by the bonfire on this Labor Day long weekend. Just about to upload a walkabout video & BAM. Gonna watch yours first. 🤙🏽
The shirt is good. Makes a change from footy gear. 😂 Bec & I spoke about this. Now you’re a classier bogan, they might even let you in the nicer part of the pub in that shirt mate. 👌🏽😆
Do you guys have any recommendations as to who to go through to hire a caravan? We don’t have the space to park one. Got 2 kids that drive & about to have the third one driving too so 4 cars are parked in our tiny driveway & it’s a scene from The Castle everyday to get my car out of garage. Have friends that have a van & I showed them your Straddy video & we are planning a trip very soon. We just need to hire a van, we have a 4WD Ute & want word of mouth from people in the know.
Im a thumbs up for the sweet threads mate. Just spent the weekend on Fraser with a few lads (a couple of your avid followers). It was mint, we also got smashed by the March Flies.
@@TripInAVan We spent the first night at Ocean Lake (Zone 8) then last night up at Zone 9 - Northern End a couple of km back from the lighthouse. We had planned to do West Coast tonight and come home tomorrow but got rained out today so came home early.
New subscriber and have just spent hours playing catch up with your videos! Videos are great and love seeing how you all as a family get out and amongst it! Will defo be hitting up your Patreon!
Trip In A Van - RoadTrip Australia Series will hook into Patreon from the start of next month and hopefully get a few more questions to ya then! Keep up the amazing work!
You should have shown more of the car wash, a minute more wouldn't have hurt, and I for one, would have loved to see more. BTW, it is a lovely episode. The children are so lovely. I envy you'all. I must not forget picking up the trash. 17 and a half stars for that! Picking up the trash at the same time, teaching the kids to do it too; way to go guys!
New wheels mate! Love the look. Btw have you got an update video from your breakdown one? Curious to know what happened and how'd you go about fixing it. Cheers!
Gday guys loving your videos. The wife and I are thinking of selling up and buying a car and van. We're in our 60s "young" and have a little dog and a bird . Do think parks would be cool with that. Cheers Dave & Cindy Portarlington vic
@@2157AF Yeah mate all that and more. Bogans and yobbos stuffing the place. It's still worth a visit but pick a time when you think it will be empty. Don't go into the dunes though as it is full of rubbish and millions of turds left where they dropped or buried one inch deep.
Another awesome video guys, can you access drinking water at Fresh Water camp ground? Well done for exposing the piss poor efforts of other campers when it comes to rubbish (hope they have seen your vids) look forward to the next vid.
Loved going back and watching this oldie, the kids look so little! Came across this vid because Teewah is the next stop on our lap, and heading there in the next few days. We’ll be camping in our van. Any tips on where we can fill up our tanks? Sick shirt BTW! 😉 🦐
Good on your family for picking up the rubbish left by the grubs in society! It is a pity we have to share these beautiful places with people that don't care.
AMEN! Was recently on Moreton Island and picked up an entire garbage bag of empty beer bottles from within 3m of the campsite... people a grubs but if we work together we can keep Australia open!
Thats what happens when tourists from overseas with a use and abuse attitude blow through , yes I have also witnessed on vary rare occasion locals doing same ,thats why we are losing our free camping sites
@@gregcain4482 Yeah, nice try to not blame locals pffft. Tourists are not nearly as bad as Aussies mate. I've been to areas where tourists have no idea even exist and see the tracks torn to shit and stubbies tossed everywhere. I've been on tracks and campsites where the bogans and yobbos party and turn things into a nightmare and no tourist to be seen. Try and speak up and at the least, you cop a gobful, and worst is they want to have a fight as they are pissed and entitled.
Justin, do yourself a favor and ditch the silicon tipped tongs on the BBQ for full metal. You’ll never push a steak into the sand unless you’ve had too many tins!!
Did the BT50 need chassis upgrade to support weight of the canopy and trailer? and was the engine tuned at all, from the vids it seems to tow quite well
Notice you don't have stone cover over you caravan front window. Any issues with this? Like the thought of having the front window open and clear to the sky and which you don't get with a stone cover over the window.
New subscriber but totally addicted. Planning extended family roadtrip next year so we are picking up lots of hot tips from your videos. We have two young boys so I love seeing the adventures your kids have. Have to ask if your happy with your screens in the van. No sandflies??
@@TripInAVan I noticed in the willow rv you have the screen that has a folded look. I thoight the holes in that looked bigger than other styles so just wondering if you would use that in the new van. We are in the process of designing our first van so I am putting together a must have list.
We are looking at coming to Australia for 6 weeks... and will need a caravan and car what’s the best way to go about it is buying one and selling it at we leave a good idea or just hire one ... any idea Cheers Chris
Hey mate I've noticed you don't use your stabilisers on your van, is that just a luxury of a larger van with good suspension? I've got a single axle Jayco expanda outback and if I didn't have mine down it would be a nightmare. Videos are awesome, can't wait to see the new rig and van.
Hey guys, great videos really enjoying them and adding a few spots to my bucket list. Just wondering what anti-rust product do you use on the BT? PS, thumbs up for the prawn start shirt.
great vid, I'm on the same boat people that leave their rubbish behind should be flogged in the nearest public square... on a more serious note, condolences to the family of that 6year old girl who drowned at the kakadu National Park last Saturday...a real tragedy.
My wife and I are hooked
your videos are very entertaining and we are both envious that we are too old to do what you are doing
Keep up the good work.
Robert Hoogwerf cheers mate, glad you enjoy them👍
You guys are bloody awesome and i love how you’re raising the kids, my congrats.
Greg Hall thanks mate
For March flies pick up a spray can of really cheap hairspray ie black and gold, you spray the March flies while they are flying and they fall to the ground due to the lacquer in the product, it will be a hoot with the kids. Great show guys love every episode
Ashley Rogan sounds like fun! Be alright to get the fire goin as well I’d reckon 🤙

No Moss Nomads so frustrating with rubbish hey
Garbage bag even* 🤪
That's crap. People have no regard sometimes. Awesome for you guys to go above and beyond though and clean it up!
We do the same, take out more rubbish than we bring in and the most left/discarded/thrown-out litter is is the beer bottles!
Hey guys, that was awesome. been up there a few times myself with a few mates, and yes you get some wayward people up there who leave their mark e.g., rubbish, but as you say if everyone did their bit to keep Australia beautiful it would make a better place. love your trips keep up the good work.

Awesome video guys . Cant wait to see what 2020 brings !
Slice Kiwifruit into thin slicers and spread over the meat for half hour then take off and salt and pepper like you did , the natural enzyme breaks down the protein and connective tissues of meat, and tenderize it.
Fishing tip for ya. Find a channel on rainbow n fish for flat head on the run out tide, best is close to dawn or dusk run out, now is the time,
Loved it, thanks guys

David Marr Iam single in the same age group and thinking the same as you ...... sell the house and live permanently in the van .
there is a lot of wind at Maroochydore river shore resort we went there last year we lost everything tent everything
We’ve been going to teewah for a long time and the last couple of years has turned us off it. Like Fraser there’s too many grubs now. Really sad.
That's a pity, have they been too loud with speakers or bad with road speed? Im hoping to visit there sometime.
Mate go. If you jag it at the right time it’s a magic spot.
Excellent considering what gear you have and your set up.
@@2157AF Yeah mate all that and more. Bogans and yobbos stuffing the place. It's still worth a visit but pick a time when you think it will be empty.

Justin, do yourself a favor and ditch the silicon tipped tongs on the BBQ for full metal. You’ll never push a steak into the sand unless you’ve had too many tins!!
aidodavo I’m with ya !!!!🤙
Did the BT50 need chassis upgrade to support weight of the canopy and trailer? and was the engine tuned at all, from the vids it seems to tow quite well
I did both mate yeah, brace kit from superior and a tune from Boothy at power torque diesel in melb
@@TripInAVan Cheers mate, safe travels
Loving the shirt haha 👌👌 please feature is future eps haha 👍👍
Callum Ward might have to be my new fishing shirt
Notice you don't have stone cover over you caravan front window. Any issues with this? Like the thought of having the front window open and clear to the sky and which you don't get with a stone cover over the window.
Hey guys would we get a 21-22ft caravan down onto Teewah. People are saying we are crazy. Towing with a Nissan patrol.
Questions, what's next after all this travelling ?? And what measures do you guys take for safety. Cheers great episodes keep it up.
Kenneth Pomphrey more travel, and what sort of safety do you mean?
The xbar, worth the cash? Be interested in a bit of a closer look at it if you get a chance mate! Cheers
Alex Baylem yeah mate, I reckon it’s brilliant! Really tidied up the back of the car and super functional with the built in recovery points 💪
Love ya show, been great watching the kids grow up, good bunch. Is Dometic still the best brand awning?
Cheers
New subscriber but totally addicted. Planning extended family roadtrip next year so we are picking up lots of hot tips from your videos. We have two young boys so I love seeing the adventures your kids have.
Have to ask if your happy with your screens in the van. No sandflies??
Belinda Marsh as long as the sand flies aren’t really bad then they are ok.
@@TripInAVan I noticed in the willow rv you have the screen that has a folded look. I thoight the holes in that looked bigger than other styles so just wondering if you would use that in the new van.
We are in the process of designing our first van so I am putting together a must have list.
Just need a chunky gold chain and the shirt would be perfect. Bec after all this time u still can't grasp the sausage.Great vid once again.
David Appleby 😂😂😂
We are looking at coming to Australia for 6 weeks... and will need a caravan and car what’s the best way to go about it is buying one and selling it at we leave a good idea or just hire one ... any idea
Cheers Chris
Did you take the kids on a pippi hunt while you were there? Always a bit of fun for young and old.
Great Video
LIvingoffgriduk thankyou
Hey mate I've noticed you don't use your stabilisers on your van, is that just a luxury of a larger van with good suspension? I've got a single axle Jayco expanda outback and if I didn't have mine down it would be a nightmare. Videos are awesome, can't wait to see the new rig and van.
Brendo Cornell yeah mate I reckon the independent suspension makes it heaps more stable. We only put em down if we setup for long stints
PrawnStar shirt doesnt beat my Flying Pineapple shirt
rodney watson 😂😂😂🍍🍍

Just a quick question. How much fuel do you use towing that big rig with the BT50 l/per100 ??

great vid, I'm on the same boat people that leave their rubbish behind should be flogged in the nearest public square...
on a more serious note, condolences to the family of that 6year old girl who drowned at the kakadu National Park last Saturday...a real tragedy.
