Keep heading North guys
xxxx island hahahahahahaha so far I haven`t seen a chick on there. Those blokes would be about as good as the crap they drink .
Mornington Island?
Considering the climate, XXXX is pretty good to drink when it's hot all the time. You need something that will hydrate you a tad too!Quote:

Green Hill Fort, Thursday Island
Correct rkinsey post one up
My old man was stationed the during ww2 and when we visited the island I know why he spoke so much about it.
He served all over the South Pacific but loved this place, and for me I will be going back to stay abit longer that the few hours we spent there last time
Woo Hoo! Heres one I found but you will probably all guess it straight away...... I've put two photos to maske it easier
First clue: Its in NSW
Hawkesbury River
Close Pearcy.... almost.
Second clue: Its on the south coast and there is a Zoo nearby.
Tomaga River?
TPC. Bingo!
Its in a place now called Tomakin which changed from Sunpatch in the mid 1980's. This shot is of the old boat ramp that is right next to the house that my grandfather built back in the 1960's and where I spent quite a few school holidays swiming and fishing in the river right there. Fresh Oysters from the rocks, yabbies for bait and plenty of room to run around.
Magic place. Although it has changed from a very small village to a growing town with quite a lot more people now than ever before.
Looks like Tony`s gone AWOL so I`ll thrown this one up
Sorry about that, I totally forgot.Quote:

Palm island, I take it, its an Australian Island and nth of the tropic of capricorn
Good on you GU
Yes Horn island international airport. If you do Cape Yorke it`s well worth doing a tour of both Thursday and Horn Islands
Both islands are steeped in history and if like us you are lucky enough to get Vanessa Seekee OAM, of Torres Strait Heritage, the local historian and operator of the Horn Island hotel, motel,museum and Island tours you will get a one great tour as she has so much knowledge of the islands
Take it away GU.
Where do you fly from on the Cape?
You can catch a ferry across to horn and Thursday islands. There is also an airport at Bamaga.
A few others might know of other airports
Will have a look and see if I can find a good pic

Where does the ferry leave from? The tip itself or somewhere else? No way known will I miss out on getting across to the islands when I eventually get up there. Is the ferry for foot passengers only or does it take vehicles?
Seems the road to the tip is not really a challenge any more. A friend & his wife are up there at the moment, got up to the tip without difficulty in their 2wd, low clearance 7 metre, wide bodied Isuzu bus based motor home. Not sure if they were towing their Suzuki 4wd as usual. I asked how they went with river crossings, & they said there were just two, both with a ferry.

4wd is only needed if you do the Telegraph track.
the ferry from Seisia is for foot traffic but you may be able to ship a vehicle from Cairns.
Check out Vanessa`s web site at www.intheirsteps.com
A trip to the tip is not complete without a trip to the islands
Thanks GU Camper, TPC & Pearcey, have stored away the info or use one day.
So do you have another location for us GU?
Cuppa
