Karijini Eco Lodge



Today we went exploring a couple of gorges. We had a blast even if the lady at the information centre tried to put us off, telling us how difficult it was.

This post will also not have too many words. I think Robyn’s excellent photos will speak for me. Enjoy.






There was heaps of rock scrambling and steep ladders, but none of it was difficult. The lady in the visitors centre painted a very bleak picture so Robyn understandably was a bit nervous but she did really well especially with the swimming in narrow trenches which is not her strong point.

Preparations

After much debate and thinking about where our next major trip will be, we have decided on Australia. The bike is enroute to Melbourne as I write this. We will collect the bike there on about the 12th of August and will circumnavigate the continent in an anticlockwise direction. So watch this space and come along for the ride and enjoy our adventures with us.  A big shout out to BMW Wellington for giving us the transport crate, 360 logistics for making the shipping so easy and to Rob Vandenberg for sharing his experiences and to everyone else who has shared their snake, spider, roadkill stories which have encouraged us no end.

Melbourne

After an uneventful flight we were met at the airport by Siobhan and Alex who have generously offered to accommodate us until we can collect the bike. On Sunday we visited a winery for lunch which was very nice. The weather is very pleasant right now with a real spring feel about it. Then after we returned home we took Kairo the golden retriever for a walk along the banks of the Yarra, then back for a couple of beers and took in the women weightlifters on telly. Monday was time for paperwork and after 2 frustrating hours on the phone trying to arrange the compulsory road insurance I gave up and we took the tram into town to visit Vicroads in person. There was a bit of a queue in front of us but when we got to the desk the girl was very helpful and we were all sorted in 10 minutes. I get the impression they still have a way to go in getting this sort of thing organised online. Anyway only the quarantine inspection to go now and we can hit the road.

First up, a very happy birthday to my travelling mate on this trip and through life. Such a wonderful wife, as witnessed yesterday in the petrol station, a guy struck up a conversation with Robyn asking about our trip and said “aw you guys are living the dream, I wish my wife would get on the back of a motorbike”. Second up, a big shout out to Siobhan and Alex for putting us up for a week, it was only supposed to be a couple of days! But they are great company and treated us very well. It was nice to get to know them better. I will miss my morning cappuccino made by Shivvy every morning. I will also miss Kairo the golden retriever pup. So up reasonably early (for us) and after a nice breakfast cooked by Siobhan we said our goodbyes and set off. The weather was about 11 degrees with a light drizzle on and off. A wet road with tram tracks and some crazy drivers made me a bit nervous but we were soon on the motorway leaving the city behind. We decided not to be too ambitious on the first ...
