Well I thought I better update you guys on whats been happening and where I have been.

I have just recently got back from a 3 week 8000+km camping trip, this trip was aimed at mainly showing Evelyn as much as Western Australia as possible in a 3 week period leaving from Jabiru NT. So for anyone interested here is my trip and some photos. As always the phone photos come first then the Nikon photos last :)

July 21st.

Packed and ready to leave.

Couldn't ask for a more perfect campsite on the Gibb river road, and it was free.

Hot weather and Matso's ginger beer goes well together.

While staying a Mitchell Falls we saw some interesting wildlife, here is a spotted quoll checking out the rubbish bin for any left overs. We also saw a cute sugar glider but I was not able to get a photo of it.

Life for a tree is hard up here and the roots look for any grip they can get.

so that's living rough.... I was starting to think there was no beer. Great shots, looks like you are having fun.

Yep thats roughing it ;)

By the way the great shots are yet to come when I go through and edit the 18,000 photos. Reason for so many is that I did quite a few timelapses and cannot wait to see how they turned out.

I was wondering what you were up to :) Glad you remembered to take a few photos along the way.
You must have a few km's clocked up on that car now.
