A Wet Start, Slippery Red Dirt and a Pub That Wasn’t Playing Ball! Well, our latest touring adventure got off to a rather damp start, with rain following us all the way from Rockhampton to Duaringa.

Four Wheels, Railway History and Country Pub Refreshments This time around, we decided to give the usual two wheels a rest and take the Mazda MX-5 for a run. A little change of pace for the Thirsty Tourists, although we quickly discovered one rather important drawback. You’d think a car would have more luggage space …
The Rocks, Sydney – Good Views, Great Pubs and a Two-Litre Beer Tube! Once again, we found ourselves heading down to Sydney’s The Rocks, one of our favourite destinations in Australia.
