We head up the Tablelands this week to check out the sights and visit family. We explore Lake Eacham, the curtain fig tree and Lake Tinaroo before heading onto Ingham where we go to an unusual tourist attraction at the Cemetery. We clean our van and it finally looks like new again!

Hi guys, Quite new to your channel and I just wanted to say thay I am loving it! My wife & I were in Oz 2 years ago, and are waiting on your borders reopening so we can get back across. We are taking notes of all those beautiful places you are visiting as we would love to retrace your steps. Stay well and keep them coming. Ken, Inverness, Scotland.

@BigOzExplorers 3 года назад

Hey Ken, that’s awesome! We love hearing about how we help others plan their route, give them ideas or allow them to feel like they’re in Australia already. Hopefully we’ll still be on the road when you get here and catch you along the way 👍🏻🥰

@roypowell3450 2 года назад

24 next! As you can see we are getting on, we loved Ingham on our travels there before. I worked for British Sugar so I am always interested in the Sugar industry. Well getting Cheryl ready to get the rib eyes just in case we are lucky!!!!

@BigOzExplorers 2 года назад

Your slowly getting through them! Sugar cane is so interesting! A shame about the imported animals (ie cane toads) and what they have done for Australia now though 😢

@roypowell3450 2 года назад

@@BigOzExplorers Our friends near Townsville introduced us to those flaming cane toads, not nice! We are up to 29 now and you have met up with other families in the next one. We are both enjoying these very much. The roast pork in the Ziggy looked good! Talking of which!! Take care for now.....

Love it! Home town is Ingham. Had to smile when it started raining at the curtain fig. Welcome to FNQ.

We were very lucky with rain in cairns as it only rained twice in five weeks but almost every time we went to tablelands it would rain 🌧 destined to see it damp with no sun!

@MrIstvanc 3 года назад

You should get a collapsible ladder to get onto and off the roof. It collapses into a small size which is easy to store. It's much safer than the shenanigans you get into.

@BigOzExplorers 3 года назад

We still don’t have a ladder but have used the car roof rack parked up close since and it’s worked well ☺️🤙🏻

Quick one on the Corn/Maze. Looks like Silage Maze. It’s grown solely for livestock feed, that’s why they let it dry out so much. It’s all mulched together for feed. It’s a different breed of corn to the one we eat

We use a Telescopic Aluminium Ladder to access our RV Roof, it is light and compact. A rope with Knots in it is a minimum safe method to exit the roof. Please look after yourselves, Love your content.

@BigOzExplorers 4 года назад

Good idea on the rope with knots haven’t heard that one yet! We’ve decided to use the car roof rack to hop up now. Worked well (but I made Chris do it this time 😝) thanks for following our journey Lauri 🥰

@davidtopham7663 4 года назад

Hi You could get a 2.1 extendable ladder from Adventure King. you would need a bracket with it . that would help to get up onto the top of your van. The aluminium ladder is suitable for installation on almost any model of 4WD coming to a total of 2.1m high. Ladder extensions are available for higher vehicles if required.

@BigOzExplorers 4 года назад

We need to do something. Will let you know in our upcoming episodes when we decide what mod to make, thanks for the tip! 😁

@BigOzExplorers 3 года назад

I’ve just realised I’ve replied to a few of your comments lol, having a good old binge! Glad your loving it. 🥰 My leg is much better now! 😁👌🏻

@colinross6259 4 года назад

Sorry Sian, but not if, just a matter of when with the shin scrape. I am going to buy a telescopic foldable 5m ladder. 2.5 m in the A frame, and opened up straight does 5m, telescopes and folds down to nothing. A frame means you can put it sideways down the van for versatility, and 5m is always handy in case you need it. You can always make a ladder shorter. Keep having fun. Weather looks so good.

@BigOzExplorers 4 года назад

Good thinking Colin! Hind sight is a beautiful thing hey! Going to use the car roof rack next time, much easier and no extra items to carry. 😊

@peterstrang9902 4 года назад

We park the car next to the van then use the roof racks to climb up, its not as far to fall and saves the extra weight of carrying a ladder.

@BigOzExplorers 4 года назад

This is what we’ve decided to do next time, how good is hindsight! 😂🤦🏼‍♀️

@ianm3172 4 года назад

Ok , Maybe next time “Me standing there to catch her” might be better than holding the go pro. FYI, a pair of Dunlop Volleys are good for slipping slowly down, my roof is about the same angle😁, hope you’re ok.

@BigOzExplorers 4 года назад

Ahhh Ian you need to meet me and know that I don’t accept help often 😂💁🏼‍♀️, I’m not your typical woman and Chris knows that! I’m probably too independent sometimes... 😎 And to be honest, I’m glad we got the footage to share with you... Hopefully others will learn from my mistake and do it the right way the first time 😁👍🏻 I am totally ok though thank you, love a good battle wound story 🤘🏻

I am confused about your vehicle? I watched you put draws in back of silver wagon and now I see wagon extension on a white wagon. Some towns have truck washing bays. A 3 metre concertina ladder comes in handy for cleaning roof solar panels and packs away tidy and less dangerous. Enjoying your travels 👏👏😘
