EP42: Terrific Tully to Townsville - Part 1 | Tully, Misson Beach, Wallaman Falls | Lap of Australia

[@OurWanderingWays]

Wow again. That fruit stall sure looked amazing. Not to mention the falls.

[@grahamthorne4146]

Well, you've really done your research well in finding so many places of interest on your route. It was good to see Archie out and about enjoying himself again. Your river rafting very much reminded me of your mum and I canoeing down the Dordogne when we are on holiday in France!!! You mention wearing 'thongs' but you appeared to be fully clothed throughout, so that's puzzling! Beautiful waterfall with lovely surroundings. The gympie gympie leaves looked very similar to those on our European nettles (les ortis), with little hairs on that cause all the irritation but maybe a bit more lethal - I hope they didn't 'get' you. Finally, what an amazing fruit stall - I bet that helped you to be regular for days afterwards !!! Now looking forward to the next episode.

Thanks Dad! Yes Archie is having lots of fun! X

Hey guys, we just went to Wallaman Falls and can’t believe that you did that walk in thongs Chris! We didn’t actually attempt the walk, but talked to a young fit looking couple who were on their way down to do the walk, but retreated 45 mins later……. so full credit to you Chris, especially doing it in thongs!!!!! The drone footage was unbelievable and was great to re-watch after being there! Corrie & Lyn, Crusader pals 😀

[@StaycationOz]

Haha yea it wasn’t one of my finest moments! I was so annoyed I forgot them but it was too late to turn around…. And I didn’t want to miss the walk! But I’m glad I did it without breaking my neck lol!! Thanks again for watching!! 👌

[@Vinceventuring]

It looks so beautiful and warm up north at the moment ❤️ so rainy in Newcastle

[@StaycationOz]

It’s very warm!! There is the occasional downpour but nothing like what SE QLD and NSW are getting!! 🌧

[@biglap.australia]

Nice drones shots of the waterfall mate! Thongs? Oh boy! Wow that fruit stall was amazing! You should do a video with Chris just saying “that’s amazing”

[@StaycationOz]

Haha yea thongs was a bad mistake!! There’s just so many amazing things everywhere lol 👍

[@Jenny-jr3mi]

Thanks guys for a great video. We went to Tully today and climbed the gumboot .. lol Also booked into Crystal Creek Caravan Park. We miss you guys and your wonderful reviews on our great land. Dale & Jenny Millie & Harry

[@StaycationOz]

Sounds like you’re having a great trip!

[@Jenny-jr3mi]

Actually just came back to Geelong on 20/11 for grandsons first birthday 🥳 and Dale was taken to emergency that night which ended in open heart surgery because of 2 blocked arteries. So grateful he didn’t have a heart attack whilst on the road and to be back around family and have their support. It came as a complete surprise as he is not over weight, doesn’t smoke etc and generally fit and healthy. Once we hit the cooler climate coming down south he started having a bit of chest pain when he exerted himself but it went as quick as it came. He will have another 7 weeks of recovery ❤️‍🩹 then we hope to be heading off again. We have loved our travel so far and a lot of it thanks to you two for sharing your journey with us and the great advice and tools like the budget planner etc which we have truly valued. We have lots more adventures yet to do. Are you planning on anymore trips ?

[@Jenny-jr3mi]

If your ever in Geelong region would love to catch up and have cuppa with you both.

[@StaycationOz]

Oh no! Hope Dale recovers quickly and fully! So lucky you were back home when it happened! I’m currently on holiday in England (and visiting Denmark and Sweden too) for the next few weeks, but Chris and I have been discussing what our future Australia travel plans are - we’ve had a few thoughts. We’re probably going to start by doing a bit more of Victoria over weekends. Take care, Hannah

[@StaycationOz]

Definitely! What a lovely offer ☺️

[@Brisbanetinnyadventures]

Well done guys! 👍True Aussie spirit walking in your thongs down that track 😁

[@StaycationOz]

Haha I wouldn’t be doing that walk in things again that’s for sure!! Thanks for watching! 👍

[@stev01965]

what did u do with your best friend (dog) while u were rafting ??

[@StaycationOz]

Archie went to Puppy Tales Farmstay which is just up the road from Tully. 😊

[@markedwards8788]

Great episode guys. I bet you won't do that walk in thongs again. I did a very famous and difficult walk in thongs once - and I'll never do that again! Keep up the great work!

[@StaycationOz]

Haha no I won’t!! I’ve now put spare shoes in the car so hopefully won’t have that issue again lol!! Thanks for watching!! 👍🩴
