Today's travel photo is of an old rickety house in the historic gold mining town of Sofala, Australia. Located north of Bathurst in New South Wales, Sofala was once a bustling gold mining settlement in the 1800's. Like most mining towns, it dwindled once the gold ran out, but somehow many of it's old buildings [...]
Today's travel photo is of a path through a pine tree plantation in Western Victoria, Australia. On our way to the South Australian border, we drove past miles and miles of pine plantations, and we stopped here for a sandwich and a cuppa. This area had been struck by some bad bush fires the month [...]
Today's travel photo is of a beautiful starry night on the Nullarbor in Western Australia. I took this photo at our camping spot in a rest area near the end of our huge journey across the Nullarbor. The vehicle in this photo belongs to some other travellers who had just pulled up to camp for [...]
Today's travel photo is of the sun rising over Lake Liddell in New South Wales, Australia. During our campervan trip across Australia, we stayed in a lot of absolutely beautiful camping spots, and Lake Liddell was one of them. On this particular morning, Veronika had awoken very early and quickly woke me up to tell [...]
Today's travel photo is a panorama of Surfer's Point at Margaret River, Western Australia. Margaret River is a beautiful place to visit in the Southwest, and is one of Australia's premier surf destinations. The surf break at Surfer's Point in Prevelly gets some pretty big waves that break on the reef below, so if you're [...]
As we drove up to Falls Creek high up in the Victorian Alps of Australia, I was amazing at just how beautiful the landscape was. I took this photo in March this year when the temperatures were still quite warm, but now this landscape would be completely transformed, and the view would be of snow [...]
The only problem with travelling overseas is that we have to leave our dog, Mindy, behind; and after nearly two months in Asia, we are missing her a lot. Today's photo is of Mindy watching the sunset at Inskip Point in Queensland, Australia, not long before we left for our road trip across Australia. She [...]
The town of Glen Davis in New South Wales, Australia, is now basically a ghost town, having once been an oil shale mining settlement during the Second World War that was soon abandoned. There isn't a lot to see here besides a few abandoned buildings, however the town certainly has a very picturesque setting. I [...]
Our recent road trip across Australia from Brisbane to Perth was amazing. Over about five weeks we travelled from the south of Queensland through New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and then into Western Australia, camping and sight seeing along the way in our old camper van. Along the way I made lots of live [...]
London Bridge is just one of many amazing sights along the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia. This natural rock formation actually had two arches and was connected to the mainland until it collapsed in 1992. Two people were left stranded on the newly formed island when this happened. I guess they were just lucky [...]
