[@TripInAVan]

Dorko85 thanks mate, loving it over here👍

[@MiniLuv-1984]

We camped on the rocks around Cape LeGrand in our campervan and woke up in the morning with water around our axles. No fees and no people back then. Had to walk back over the rocks that were now under water to plot my way back out again. Beautiful part of the country.

[@TripInAVan]

HAHA

[@Laxgirl1984]

Esperance is the best!!! very proud of our state.. happy days

[@paulberry811]

Hey Guys another top episode enjoy it looked so peaceful and worthwhile, cool for answering water i was curious when you have to fill your tanks IE every three days or less

[@TripInAVan]

Paul Berry we can get around a week with our 300litres. Depends on where we are camping as well, if it’s on the beach we can skip a few showers and wash in the saltwater ✌️

[@elloweeze1]

Great information , loved the beaches ,the kangaroos were cute ,thanks for sharing ,looking forward for your next instalment

[@TripInAVan]

CHEERS

[@TheRaimo]

Bottom of WA was also wet and cold on our trip, remember plugging the power lead in one caravan park in ankle deep water, so dangerous .Wave Rock, did you go up top, great view. Enjoy WA we spent 3 months travelling north to south, unreal free camps above Perth. Keep em rolling. Thanks Petri.

[@TripInAVan]

Yeah we walked up top, amazing!!

[@CodyCB07]

We love you guys, we used to live in Condingup and it's where I met my partner... 2 kids later and now looking at traveling! Have a good one, guys!

[@TripInAVan]

hey guys! Howw good is Esperance!!!

[@youreworthyourweightinavoc7189]

I thought about moving to Condy - how was it to live? I've heard there's a bit of a meth head problem.

[@darthvader8433]

Good tip for WA.. If you are a RACWA member you can buy a vehicle entry pass for all the national parks in WA for a whole year at half price - which means about $45. I'm not sure if they do a reciprocal thing for NRMA, RACQ etc though. But even at full price unlimited park entries at $100 for a year is good value. Doesn't cover camping fees though.

[@aarondow1614]

Another awesome installment people's loving watching your little adventures, welcome to wa and pur wonderful state, can't wait to see the next episode 🤙🤙

[@TripInAVan]

[@TripInAVan]

Minh Sprint cheers mate, glad your enjoying the vids🤙

[@WesternAustraliaNowAndThen]

Good stuff, the trailer coupling looks very nice. If you are going to visit a number of national parks get a parks pass, it will save you a heap of money.

[@streetleswa8053]

Building memories is what life is all about ....enjoy W.A. , as you say , West is best ...haha...pity you diidn't do the coastal route we have had an amazing 2 weeks of weather down here at Albany and the south coast, it's all over now though.....enjoy your journey

[@TripInAVan]

Cheers mate

[@zoezoe610]

I remember you have other security but I always lock our chains back around the draw bar with a big lock so your chains can't be used to drag your van away by shackling them around a hitch.

[@TripInAVan]

Good idea!! Cheers

[@andrewb.5996]

You guys are awesome.......keep up the great work.

[@TripInAVan]

Andrew B. Thanks heaps mate✌️✌️

[@ondaroam311]

Welcome back to WA, spent 2 weeks down that way over Xmas break and loved it.....

[@TripInAVan]

cheers

[@thisneurodiverselife]

I know this is an old video, but great to see you loving our backyard! I'm looking forward to seeing how you enjoyed the Moore River Region. One Life, One Search, Peace Out, Shane

[@chartphred1]

Wow! I lived in Esperance as a kid in the early 70s, we used to go to Lucky Bay when it was just a tiny gravel track to the beach, I don't think there was even much of a parking area. We just drove straight onto the beach (almost drowned near the rocks down the end of the beach, two Japanese sailors pulled us out of the water 😏), just incredible how things have changed

[@soundzrinmygarden3833]

Great vid. I reckon you guys would love Shannon Campground about 50 km's south of Manjimup. It's not on the beach but it's one of my favorite places in WA. They use to drop off firewood from an old timber mill nearby and also had hot showers thanks to a wood fired water heater the rangers would light about 4pm each evening. Great place, worth a look. Look forward to your next video.

[@TripInAVan]

soundzRinmygarden cheers mate

[@StankPlanks]

Just discovered your channel guys and it’s awesome. I’ve been to many spots in WA and 99% have been stunning. Keep the videos coming.

[@TripInAVan]

[@EveArtie]

Anotger quality video from a loving, adventure family! Can't wait to head over to WA in a few months time with my toddler 😎😎 keep enjoying guys

[@michaelmcroberts4398]

Another great video, thanks guy!

[@mjhmech4903]

The Western end of Membinup is absolutely beautiful when it's not chocked with seaweed...unfortunately that is a very rare event . Did you guys explore the other two little beaches up the track straight ahead from where you were camped other side of the headland? 24:12 Lake " Magic" :D

[@julietups5948]

It's like you knew I was sat at soccer practice wondering when your next video will be up😂😂 yayyyy

[@TripInAVan]

[@oxygenformysoul6640]

Hi Guys, thx for the vids - loving them! We hope to head off ourselves pretty soon now. A question: was there much opportunity to refill your van water tanks with fresh water ( not bore water) as you crossed the Nullarbor? It would be good if you were able to include the water refill points before you head into more remote areas and if it has a cost. Thx again. Safe travels.

[@TripInAVan]

Oxygen For My Soul you can fill up at Ceduna and then again at one of the big roadhouses across the Nullarbor

[@holgermuller2987]

New brake disc and brakes pads first 300 to 500k run in and to settle thereafter you can tell about the performance. Be safe all time. Cheers,

[@TripInAVan]

Adrian Likus thanks heaps👌

[@AUSSIEMEGSCHANNEL]

I would do it in a heart beat. It all comes down to money. Need it for the right car , and van and to take time off work and to live. Im sure alot of people would def be up for it. But same reason. Will keep on the lotto , you never know. Looking forward to seeing more of WA. Enjoy your trip x

[@gebi4pejo1]

We started of simply with an xtrail and a camper never went off bitumen and then we did the big 4WD and off road camper, just practice locally as it can be very expensive.

[@youreworthyourweightinavoc7189]

HI Justin and Bec - Great great content. Heather and me spent 3 months travelling beautiful Australia, in a Subaru Outback and an Ozzie 4x4 rooftop tent (Nov 2018 to Feb 2019 Sydney to Cairns - Sydney - GOR - Melbourne - Canberra - Sydney) for the very first time and it is an amazing place - Love your video content and Too Easy Mate...;)

[@TripInAVan]

Bill Allen what a great trip mate! Thanks for watching💪 You’ll have to do the west coast next trip🤘

[@billallen4039]

Its already in theplanning stage for late 2020 as we are off to India for 10 daysand then western Austrailia Uluru in a Ute and a Jayco for probably 3 months then check out NZ (dont mention cricket:-) then back to Oz:-)

[@TripInAVan]

Bill Allen sounds unreal

[@billallen4039]

For anyone who has never been to Australia then your videos take them one step closer . The Ozzie tourist board should chuck a few dollars your way :-)

[@TripInAVan]

Bill Allen cheers mate! If only they’d flick us some cash hey💪

[@raiman432]

great info guys will be heading that way next year any chance of letting us know that the places you stay at are PET friendly,it would help me out heaps thanks. We have dogs and no kids?

[@kyealexander6988]

That water was incredible. Just wondering are there places to check where is safe to swim?

[@TripInAVan]

Safe to swim everywhere, but if your not a good swimmer make sure you stick to the patrolled beaches with lifeguards. Cheers

[@suetuttleby6609]

[@Racnmasn]

Hand break on a trailer, First time seeing that what a game changer! And your hand crank on your trailer is there some kind of gearing on that? Looks like there must be something, here in the US everyone has a power hitch 🤔 And that beach I would just do a loop with some other camp grounds and just go back when I am permitted! 😎😂😂😂

[@TripInAVan]

Mason U the handbrake is so good mate. Safe to unhitch knowing it won’t roll away👌 And yeah, the hand crank is called a jockey wheel. I don’t know what ratio the hearing is but it’s easy enough to wind the drawbar up and down! Some people do have power hitches as well💪

[@Racnmasn]

@@TripInAVan Cool caravan! 😎

[@kman6482]

Love your work guys,have a question,how’s that stone guard,is it protecting the caravan?

Get to south australia..one more trip we plant is Darwin to perth. Complet whole circle australia. Worth every cent. Feel sorry for the rental car company to clean the car.full of red dusts and dirt. Thnx

[@ballzack4866]

Good vid guys. You've got it right. Top part of the world. Not a popular aspect of holidaying but just stay vigilant with your kids. I've observed a few animals of the human kind with obvious bad intention on camping trips with my own family. They prey on the vulnerability of relaxed campers.

[@mikesmith9671]

Hi guys wow love the vids. Justin I bought that Makita chainsaw you used on your trip, it’s awesome mate. Question: Can you give me some info about the drone you use, make, model etc. thinking of buying one. Thanks for your great videos, tips and info guys. Your an inspiration to all of us . Well done to you, Bec and the kids. Keep on trukin lol, cheers from Mike 👍

[@TripInAVan]

Mike Smith cheers mate!! We love that little chainsaw it’s epic🤘 We use a DJI Mavic 2pro drone💪

[@redhammer9910]

We did tonnes of camping in WA with the kids Kal too all the way up to Menzies and Lake Ballard, kids loved it. If you go out that way be careful of the old prospectors mines from the colonial days, kids don't realize the danger. Take a pan and extra water and do some gold panning. Spoil the kids, there's a couple of prospector shops in Boulder and Coolgardie, always got some gold to buy or even alluvial. Wait till the kids are getting a little bit bored then stick the gold between your fingers and drop it in the pan as your swishing it around. You'll have them bouncing off walls when they find it. Top travelling and enjoy.

[@bretthughes34]

Get yourself a park pass you will save a fortune when visiting national parks. Also can you supply some kind of link for the DO35 hitch lock. We came here 3 years ago from Qld and still here 👍👍

[@soulsistertwo]

Thanks for sharing, I hope to be seeing some this next year. My partner and I don't have a 4wd caravan, only a 21ft very well built caravan. In your opinion, would we be able to reach some of were you have been? Ningaloo video I was making reference too.

[@TripInAVan]

Oh you could definitely go most places we go.

[@ontheroadwithjohn]

From memory lake magic is the big lake on the other side of the road from the pond you were in. Its called lake magic because of the sunset across the lake. its pretty neat. The resort is open but you are in a small country town trying to survive. The airport was funded by the locals and was put in as an all weather strip for the flying doctor. Generally there are now flights to Hyden. You are legally allowed to fly your drone around airports that do not have a control tower. But if you hear any aircrafts you are to land immediately

[@TripInAVan]

@@TripInAVan Beautiful! The beaches got the crunchy/squidgy sand feel, people catch salmon off the beach in when in season, last time I was there I ran into a 1.5m goanna chillin on the beach track, there is large rocks & pools on shore where you can easily catch some crabs. Great for a real adventure, had to take some really off grid tracks to get to the Bay but well worth the trip 👍
