    It definitely looked like it wanted to attack. Go back try it again but get closer. Just love watching ockys in the water, so strange looking creatures.

    Hi Kris,

    Just re-read the whole thread, I'm looking at doing this in June next year. We'll include Kakadu, Darwin and Fraser Island etc. Just the two of us (empty nesters) so don't need to do Surfers etc.
    A couple of questions to start with (probably more to come):
    Why did you choose to go clockwise?
    Where did you leave the van when you went to the tip?

    Cheers

    Good on ya, you will love it no doubt! We loved every minute of it and planning to go again very soon....hopefully for longer.

    We did not really have any plans in place so just decided to go that way but the Neurum forum meet-up timing help that decision. To tell you the truth we were just ganna go up to Cape and then down slowly but changed our minds and decided to the centre as well.

    We towed the van up to Weipa and left it at the caravan park in their shed. It was only $7 a night . We could have easly driven to Seisia or Bamaga but not knowing the conditions we left it at Weipa. The road got fairly rough as soon as we crossed the Jardine river but still easly could have got the van up there.

    No problems at all mate, just ask ahead
