Congrats on the marathon Lil, fantastic effort. We've got on stripes on our van. No longer stressed about them. I just add more. If you can afford, Upgrade from GoPro to DJI. SOOOO MUCH better.
My son and his GF were there a few days ago and said it was epic. He said he would have paid 3 times the price for the experience. That "damage" is nothing!!! We had our maiden voyage in the brand new van and clipped a new 4x4 at St Marys. No damage to our van, but ripped the front driver's side panel of his ute. We stopped for a coffee. The coffee was terrible to boot!! Lesson learnt. Dont turn too tightly in a restricted spot. Keep up the great work guys. I look forward to your weekly posts.
You’ve officially christened the van 😂 what a journey 😮I would have been stressing out but you guys did so well love the underwater footage, stunning 🤩💕💕💕🍻🍻
Awesome video Lily and Jake really enjoyed it. I’m glad you’re van got through that bush with out getting damaged. That water hole looked really cool. I was saying to myself I wonder if you both checked to see if there is any Crocodiles in the water hole or not. So looking forward to seeing you both on Saturday night for the next episode 😊
Cheers for your support as always Jeremy! Yeah, couldn’t agree more!! So stoked it came out alive. It was an incredible swim spot, can’t believe how magical it was. Hahahah, no crocs there luckily, waaaaay too cold! See you next week. 🙌🏼🤩
I love how you guys just get on with it, i stress too much. We scratched our van so bad at 6 weeks old that its now in insurance getting fixed 😂😂😂. Enjoyed this episode as always
I’m still loving the fact you got a new caravan and we can still watch your adventures 👏👏👏😁. Once again an amazing little teaser of what’s to come 😊. Can’t wait. Safe travels.
Love Lil's commentary through the 'bog', hilarious. Not mention driving over the drone! Almost convinced me to get a winch too. Maybe ditch the GoPro for a Dji Osmo
Awesome spot those springs, reminds me of my very younger days spending hours swimming in springs like that on my uncles farm in South Africa Groot Mariko You need to change your equipment to DJI action cameras end of your dramas no overheating no corrupted sd cards no stop recording with no reason Good job in clearing the track its needed and the rangers cant get to all of them fast enough. Thanx for your hard work. Cheers Johnny&Rene
Oh wow, how amazing is that!! What a great childhood memory. Yeah, a few people have been saying that, we will have to look into some GoPro alternatives! Thank you, if you’ve got the time why not hey! 🙌🏼
Omg you guys are so hilarious 😂 😃 I've now got my mum watching you as well and she's hooked!!!! I can't believe how far off road and the adventures you're prepared to take your car and new van 😮 Hope you've recovered Lil from your marathon 😊
Omg!!! No way! We love that so much. 🙌🏼 yeah, to be honest, I can’t believe how far we take it too. 😂 Finally recovered!! Took a few days that’s for sure. 😅
Its one of my favourite parts to the week- watchingbyour vid! Thxheaps and the track and spot look awesome! Another awesome spot for the bucket list! Phil
Haha Im glad you two have patience with each other, good job Jake moving the tree off the track, that snake would have scared me too, pythons don't scare me, but that looked like a brown snake, hope you weren't in trouble for eating Jake's bickie, the water in the ponds was so clear. Take care, stay safe. 🙏❤️💃🕺
Not sure what the point was to take that tight track. I thought there might be a great campsite at the end of it but it just joined on to a main dirt road. Short cut?? Anyway, loved the episode.
Sometimes I ask the same thing Jason! 😂 Nah, the plan was to try and take a short cut to SA but it didn’t quite work out for us. All part of the adventure though! 🙌🏼
At the bog hole walking the track. Your comment Jake, " I love what your wearing today " ! Was that comment to try and keep the piece while in a situation your wife didn't like ? 😂😂 😂
It always sucks christening a vehicle but at least it's done now and you can enjoy your new caravan. I always feel that way with my cars and vans but we know that bush pinstripes are inevitable.
Well done you two, that tree moved no worries. I thought you wouldn’t go down narrow paths with your lovely new van but silly me of cause nothing has changed which is great🥴🥴. That was a bloody big snake guy’s hope you had shoes on Jake. That Ford Ranger does surprise me as it gets through most things when others fail😂😂. That’s a lot of gods and lords Lill, shame about the drone though but keeping away from that snake has to be your priority especially in the middle of nowhere 🥴🥴. Jake you should give Lill a massage I think she deserves it after that huge run she did😤. Thanks for another great show 🤣🤣. You two. Jon
Cheers Jon! 🙌🏼 hahahahah, wish you were right. Maybe one day we will learn! 😂 Yeah, it was huge. Jake had to put his high top Ugg boots on after that! 😂 yeah, I was even cringing watching myself back there too. Usually we cut a lot more of them out! 😅 I think I deserve some RnR that’s for sure with some of the shit he puts me through!! Thanks for watching, glad you’re enjoying it!! 🙌🏼🤩
Glad your having a crack , but are you regretting not getting a narrower lower hybrid so you can entertain us with your bush adventures that are great to watch
Yeah, exactly what I thought as soon as they revealed the new van coz had the same regrets when I got a bigger van. I didn't want to be negative so I've left it for you ha ha
@@lilandjake we downsized from a 18.6 to a Alpine 16” with the same battery and solar as you have so we could go to more places. Happy for you both and I’m not in your position of travelling full time .
Hey Guys! I'm with Lil here. I get Jake wants to do "off road" but maybe just not fire tracks with that caravan. 😊 I must be old fashioned because if i just spent $100,000 + on a new caravan - I wouldnt want to instantly devalue it like that. Its not a judgement, each to their own. Love your channel btw! 😊
Looks like you are missing the cowling that sits over that gap in front of the radiator. I believe it directs all the air to pass through your radiator and keeps your water and oil temps just that bit cooler when you are moving.
try the DJI Action 4 ... i have a 3 and it has not played up at all even sitting on the dash in full sun... just yesterday it was sitting on the motor when i started it, the poor thing fell down on top of the exhaust manifold, it was still filming 20 minutes later when i started looking for it after i remembered where i had left it.
How good are the DO35, you'll never be able to go back to a normal coupling again. What have you done to the new van!!! 😮😮 Those ponds are beautiful. 🤩 I hear the DJI Osmo is a good alternative to the GoPro. 👍 Cheers Guys. 🥰🥰
I don't think you could fit another OOh Mmmmyyyyy Gggggooooooood, in there Lil, so funny and the tone kept getting higher and higher LoL. Good to know you're coming back through SA, if you're in Whyalla remember to let me know so I can say Hi to you legends, Whyalla is very small so we're not hard to find 😃
@@lilandjake well we’ll be here for the winter giant cuttlefish season so just drop us a message and you can stay for as long as you want guys, it would be awesome to host you here cause there’s so much to do and see. Safe travels guys.
Oh sorry, we were actually still in Victoria for that section. We just had a couple of days off between filming but desperately wanted to share the Ewen ponds footage!!
Hey lil and Jake when you went to Ewens ponds ( it is just beautiful under the water my happy place) after ponds, did you check out Little Blue lake. Did you jump in from the cliff top? We went to robe as well a few weeks back, it is a pretty place.
Isn’t it magical under there, such crystal clear water! We did last time, missed it this time though. We are a bit strapped for time atm. 😅 Robe is beautiful with nice weather! 🩷
That pond was epic have to make sure we visit there. Man the extra height of a non-pop top van really showed on this episode. Re GoPro agree they are rubbish get yourself some DJI Osmo’s far superior and don’t hover heat etc.
Oh Gees... What HAVE YOU GUYS DONE !!!??? Ha hA hA massive spider hanging in the air above your head Jake at 12:33!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. 🚁 I've heard of numerous issues with GoPro. I'd move away from using them if you can afford it as there are much better systems on the market now. Nice episode Lil and Jake! Great to see you guys off road again and forging ahead with the new caravan. You still haven't told us how the new bed is and are you sleeping better without the pull out mattress? A simple buff will remove most of those scratches Jake! How cold was the water? Keep up the good work!
Yeah, i agree, lots of troubles with GoPro!! Will have to look into to some alternatives. Absolutely LOVING the new bed set up, super comfy, might get a topper at some stage in the future. Water was sooooo cold! 🥶
Great to hear your well comfortable in your new lodgings! 🤣🤣🤣. Yes I've heard the water temp can be a mite troublesome...Will you be going to Gambier as well on your travels? @@lilandjake
Lil's still tripping out on her runner's high , I'd be dead . I got a flat tire on my Bike 5 miles from home the other day had to walk it back slept for 10 hours that night & could hardly move the next day { I am 61 } 🙂
I was up working near Coober Pedy when I said to my com worker that I would go up ahead and clear the track and I came across a tree that was fallen across the track, so I picked it up and pushed it to the side when I saw the grass move, I looked over and saw a King Brown Snake that was about 1.5 meters in length and we just had a mouse plague and it was well fed 😮
