Thank you guys, for making the Cape look so approachable for families. I completely had misconceptions from the ‘adventurers’ on TV making it look like ‘bush-bashing’ through the wilderness. Awesome, bucket list for sure... absolute Paradise.

Hello guys & kids another great episode. Portland Roads looks fantastic also Chilli Beach looks crackers. I saw Resto Island on an episode of 4WD Action with John Rooth & co & what a location. Old Dave seems like a nice old guy has just got the life. Was funny seeing Bec on that sail thing like you said if anything is going to happen Bec will be involved. Anyhow can't wait till the next instalment stay safe. Its also great to get feedback as well.

Following your nice chapter on Cape York we also planned to make a visit to temple (short one for the impression and a stubby), probably before booking a few days with my wife. However, they told us they are busy, and you can get to the site just by booking ahead. I think that should be correctly explained when introducing this site. However, Portland Roads itself is epic and we met wonderful people there.
