We are just a regular Australian couple, married for over 30 years with two young adult boys. We are making the most of our lives by maximising our travel opportunities before retirement! Many people think they need to wait until retirement or until they win lotto! Unfortuntely, things don’t always go to plan. We are making sure we see our fair share of this country now. We have always traveled more than most while working, taking advantage of long weekends and sneaking in an extra day’s leave here and there. 

In August 2018 we both resigned from our jobs to take a “gap year or 2” We have been on the road since then, and hope to extend our “gap year or 2” for as long as possible! 

We love the red Outback, country pubs, Aussie rivers, vibrant sunsets, waterfalls, campfires, stargazing and following that secluded bush trail either on foot or in the 4WD. Then of course, there is the Coast! How glorious is it to stroll our Australian coast line, spotting whales, exploring rock pools or splashing in the waves! If you enjoy all those things too, you will just love our adventures! Hope to see you out there!

Darwin Sights - Part 2
We continue our time in Darwin. This time we visit lots more tourist attractions including the Military Museum, Aquascene Fish Feeding, Fanny Bay Goal, and plenty more! We splash around in the waterfront wave pool, and take a walk around Charles Darwin National Park.
There is so much to see in Darwin that in our 6 years, this is our longest ever stay at a single location!
You will get heaps of ideas if you are planning a trip to Darwin CBD.

Have you walked through the WWII Oil Storage Tunnels in Darwin? These tunnels explain an important time in Australian history, and are well worth the small entry fee. The tunnels were built secretly to safeguard the oil needed for shipping and aircraft during the war. The war ended before the tunnels were complete, so they were never used as intended. These tunnels were kept secret until 1992! See more of our time in Darwin in our YouTube ⬇️youtu.be/D86wmVLCj_I?si=e2_FIlDpk7flIch_ ... See MoreSee Less
