Tanya was lucky that the hollow ground didn't give way another enjoyable video thanks guys All the best Ron

[@LBWAdventures]

Hahah it did sound hollow… even if the camera didn’t make it sound it 🤣🤣🤣. Thanks for watching as always Ron 🙌

Another great video guys, love your banter. Keeps it entertaining for sure. 👍🏻

[@LBWAdventures]

Thanks Shaun, nice to hear from you as aways and happy to hear your still enjoying the videos 😀.🙌. Thanks for the message and for watching

[@debthornton8164]

Love watching your vids, have an amazing Easter, and happy travels 😊

[@LBWAdventures]

Hey Deb, ah awesome to hear you enjoyed the video and happy Easter to you also ❤️. Thanks for the message and of course for watching 🙌🙌🙌

That happened to us too. We were already at the Campground and needed to change sites as we wanted to extend our stay.....we got off our site in time but had to sit in the roadway as the other people took their sweet time in getting away.....over an hour late.

[@LBWAdventures]

Ah sorry to hear that. We really weren’t sure whether or not to even put that in the video, but we wanted to share what really happens and although it turned out they were nice and just not watching the time, it still messed with our day and was frustrating at the time as every site has clear check in and out times and it forced a conversation we shouldn’t have needed to have. I hope the rest of your trip in that instance went well. If you were extending your stay hopefully that means you were enjoy having fun 🙌🙌🙌. Thanks for the comment and for watching 😀

Back about 60 years ago my dad took me to the wreck of the Ethel, it was definitely in better condition than your visit. It still had ribs and a small amount of planking! Still worth a visit for the history.

[@LBWAdventures]

Oh wow, there definitely wasn’t any sign of planking anymore. Guess time and Mother Nature is still slowly eating away at her. Thanks for the message and for watching along with us 🙌😀

Another great video guys. Always get a bit of a giggle 😊 I asked Google the difference between wharf and jetty since you asked the question I wanted to know myself 😅 Jetties can be built to protect inlet channels from cross currents or storm waves. Wharf: a berthing structure that runs parallel to the shore

[@LBWAdventures]

Thanks Sharon, we love hearing that the videos are enjoyed 🙌 haha yes funny you mentioned that as after I edited the video I did the same thing… guess our kiwiana /Aussie theory is busted 🤣🤣🤣. Thanks for watching and commenting

[@13mrex]

Hey guys 🎉 lucky that was an easy conversation about your site 😅… 10/10 for the food update 🌱 master chef Chris with a can of baked beans was pure class 😂 have an awesome Easter weekend from your 2 fav followers here who are also v🌱

[@LBWAdventures]

Yes we were lucky the site situation turned out to be an easy resolve that’s for sure. Hahah Chris will love his new ‘master chef’ status 🤣🤣🤣. Thanks as aways for watching and happy Easter to you both also 🐣 🐇. Great to hear from fellow 🌱people 🙌

[@lauriejacob103]

Another great vid. Are you guys heading to Victoria? Cos it’s starting to get cold in the high country already.

[@LBWAdventures]

Thanks Laurie, I think after not having a winter last year in north WA. we have decided we are ‘allergic’ to the cold so will start chasing the sun….. 🤣😝. Thanks for the message and for watching.

[@TheDudeminator]

Hey Chris, now you've got a taste for flies, are you going to start eating meat?😂

[@LBWAdventures]

Hahaha nope 😝😝😝😝 Did you see how fast that was spit out🤣. Working up north in the mines it’s a technique well practiced! Thanks for the comment and for watching 👍

Same area and same problem. We arrived to find our pre-booked spot already occupied. Told the bloke and he said he had booked it as well. We reached a conclusion that it had been double booked by the department. I went to the Ranger and we got another site. As we were setting up at that site the 'occupier' came over to offer a profuse apology, showed us his booking slip and he was in the wrong spot. That prebooking system is a total failure instigated by bureaucratic cone heads whose idea of a camping trip is sitting on the bloody loo for over 5 minutes. My hate mail file to sundry state politicians explaining the flaws in this system is not small ... but politicians are so incredibly stupid it sucks the oxygen out of my system.

[@LBWAdventures]

Oh no :( sounds like they made a mistake, so it was good they let you know once they realised. That’s a good point though, if it happens to us again, which we hope it won’t, we will have to nicely approach to double check booking site numbers to ensure everyone is in the right spots.

[@davidmilledge221]

Just go over and be polite and nice and say u booked that site then they might move their butts faster , if u park up and say nothing and glare at them then they have no idea their not mind readers , just stupid humans like the rest off us 😊 enjoying a beautiful place

[@LBWAdventures]

Yes we did end up going over to speak to them, and as you said they just weren’t keeping track of time. We didn’t park up and glare at them as we were on the other side of camp waiting. I guess after a long drive when you have a booking you just hope that you can roll in and get on with your day. All these little experiences along that way are lessons learnt. ☺️ Thanks for the comment and for watching
