Day 7 Camels!

Mike's Top Gear Challenge Day 7 Morning and another day begins on my challenge to get home in a $900 car. So far I have covered over 1400 kilometers and made it from Darwin to Alice Springs. Today I will try for Uluru also known as Ayers Rock which is about 440 k away. After packing up I...

Day 6 in the bag!

Mike's Top Gear Challenge Day 6 Today I woke up early at the Banka Banka Camp and quickly packed up. I checked the fluid levels on the car and the coolant was full and the oil level was correct though the oil is much darker now. Today will be another 500 k plus day- it is amazing to go...

Bush fires and the devils marbles

The alarm went off at 5:30m this morning to get on the road first thing for an exhausted day of non-stop driving. Drove pretty much all day, with just a brief stop-over at Devil’s marbles which are a collection of round-ish rocks seemingly scattered in the desert. Chris...

Alice Springs to Darwin

Felix, Frenzy en ik hebben besloten om geen vervanger voor Katherina mee te nemen naar Darwin. We hadden berekend dat het, als we iemand mee zouden nemen, ons 30 dollar per persoon zou besparen. Elke morgen hadden we al moeite met alle spullen in de auto te puzzelen en het zou ook weer moeite...

Mitte

Und dann kamen wir noch einmal an. [[Australia/Alice-Springs]] offenbarte und trockene Felsen und eisige Nachtluft. Niemals koennte ich so einer abgeschotteten Stadt leben. Das waere verrueckt. (hier hat das Gruppenfoto nicht ganz so geklappt)

West McDonnell Ranges

Notre dernier "camp site" est de loin le plus impressionnant. On s'enfonce dans les west macDonnel ranges via une piste où Steeve manque plusieurs fois de nous ensabler, et on s'installe dans le lit de la Finke River. Au beau milieu de nulle part et à des kilomètres de tout. Il n'y a rien. Pas...

To the Red Center of Australia

Cinq heures du matin, notre avion décolle de Sydney. 10h30, escale à Melbourne (avec une heure et demi de décalage horaire). Et on atterrit à Alice Springs. La capitale de nulle part à 400 km au Nord d'Ayers Rock. Mais c'est d'ici que partent les tours pour le bush et Uluru. L'essentiel de ses...

Weer onderweg!

Na een maand in Melbourne ben ik sinds gister weer op pad. Heb afgelopen maand echt ervaren wat het is in Melbourne te wonen: s ochtends ergens een koffietje drinken, de tram nemen naar de stad, je huisgenoten zien als je thuis komt. Het was ook weer fijn een ‘huis’ te hebben voor een paar...
