Telford Travels

In 2008 Pat and I travelled 35000 kms over 8 months through the east coast and north of Australia. We maintained contact through a series of emails which detailed our exploits including some remote parts of Queensland, the Nothern Territory and Western Australia ending in Broome.

While not recorded our travels did continue from Broome up the Dampier Peninsula (Cape Levique) and across the Tanami Track from Halls Creek to Alice Springs. From Alice Springs we travelled to Tenant Creek and via the Barkly Highway to Rockhampton and home down the East Coast.

Two highlights of the trip home were a visit to Woolfe Creek Crater (Pat and I still have not seen the movie) and Rubyvale just out of Emerald in Queensland where the Saphire ring was purchased.

It has always been our intention to complete the journey around west coast and the following is a travel log of this journey.

Introduction

In 2008 we travelled alone with no committed timetable to provide us the flexibility of travelling where and when we wanted. On this occasion we plan to travel east to west across the centre of Australia through some extremely remote areas and therefore have teamed up with Rob and Barb Hutchison Karl Gordon and Gay Phillip and Dave and Dee Tolmer to travel the Outback Way from Boulia in Queensland to Laverton in Western Australia. It is planned that we meet at Windorah in Western Queensland on 1st of May 2010 from where our journey commences.

  1. Sounds like you are having a great trip. Sorry to hear about Pat's accident. Hope it does not mean surgery! We received the link to blog via Martine. We would love to hear how things are going, can you put us in the loop.
