There are some very clever sculpture artists in outback Queensland. All made from recycled materials and displayed in an outdoor exhibition at Roma.

Winton, in outback Queensland. What an ecclectic and awesome little town. Opals, dinosaurs, Banjo Patterson, Waltzing Matilda, bush poetry, outdoor deckchair movies, trucks, yellow belly fish in water holes, world class museums, circus and one of the coolest outback main streets you’ll ever see.

We camped down by a billabong just out of town in a great little spot with only one other camper. Winton is one of our favourite country towns so far. It had the same feel and vibe of our little town back home on the south coast of WA. Denmark and Winton are about the same size, although Denmark is surrounded by forests and the ocean, whilst Winton is surrounded by the open plains of the Barclay Tablelands. Vastly different locations, geography and weather… but same awesome vibe!!!

The Barkly Tableland… yep, she’s flat.

The featureless landscape overflows to the horizon in every direction.

Meet Tim Carter, owner of arguably Australia’s most iconic outback pub… Daly Waters.

Tim bought the original pub in 2017 and has done a major upgrade to the facilities whilst still keeping all the history and paraphernalia that adorns nearly every square inch of the place… you name it, it’s there. It’s a visual sensory overload, but oh so epic!!!

Then there are Tim’s goats, horse, donkeys, Brahman cows and a dog named Kevin that freely roam throughout the pub, but usually just hang out at the front entrance. Tim’s junkyard is part of the pub experience and is a whole other story in itself.

I could post a million photos but it needs to be seen firsthand and I don’t want to spoil the experience for those that haven’t been there yet. For those that have been there already, you know exactly what it’s like… awesome!!

As we left the bright city lights of Darwin behind, it was off to another spectacular swimming hole.

Mataranka Hot Springs is a thermal pool with water temperature at a fairly constant 32 degrees Celsius (34 degrees when it comes out of the ground upstream, 32 degrees in the first pool, then 32 degrees in the second pool. The next swimming hole at Bitter Springs, just down the creek, was inhabited by a large saltwater crocodile while we were there so no-one was game to test the water temperature in that one.

The water colour seems to copy the colours of the peacocks that wander around the site. It was stunningly beautiful and the clarity of the water was simply astonishing.

After seemingly endless spectacular gorges, waterfalls, billabongs, canyons and creek beds… we had a few days of art, culture, history, museums, international cricket and botanical gardens (and great coffee!!!) Darwin was a chance to reset our cosmopolitan compass for a short while before hitting the open road again.

It seems a good balance to appreciate both the city and the bush… but we’re country people at heart and we know exactly what nurtures our soul. Darwin was awesome by the way and had the laid back swagger of a city that was born from a history of resilience and strength.

Spoiler alert… if you don’t like flowers, bail out now. All the images were taken at Darwin’s George Brown Botanic Gardens.

You know it gets hot in the Northern Territory when the rubbish bins start melting.

Dry season waterfalls in the Kimberley are usually popular spots for visitors to the region, but we were lucky to have this one all to ourselves.

It was a bit of a trek to get into, but once we arrived, we were stoked to find no one else there. It was a stunning location for a swim and a splash under the waterfall. The water was crystal clear and cool, but not cold.

The Kimberley region of Western Australia is truly epic and there are nuggets of awesomeness everywhere.

The Kimberley region of Western Australia has a magic window. For me, it’s the time when the harsh heat of the day gives way to the warm hug of the late afternoon glow. The time between day and night, light and dark, harsh and soft… this land is such a special place and we leave it with stunning memories.

Eastward bound into the Northern Territory.

UNESCO World Heritage-listed Purnululu National Park, in the remote Kimberley region of Western Australia, is home to the Bungle Bungles. These incredible geological structures were formed over 350 million years ago and the area has some of the most stunning landscapes we’ve ever seen. The geological scale of the rock formations is staggering and the way the sun plays on the rock faces, particularly in the afternoon glow, is quite breathtaking.

Every day is an adventure for us as we head north before turning east, but some memories will last forever… and the Bungles I’m sure will become a good one!!!
