For some time now I've been alluding to a "big trip" to the Kimberley, probably Australia's most sort-after destination for those who want to get away from it all.

But where exactly are we going?

Well not even we know exactly, but we do have a bit of a plan, whether we follow it or not remains to be seen, but the following map should give you an idea.

Now that's a lot of miles, and in just three months, it usually takes us that long to pack up. But this is not our usual journey.

On this trip we're going with companions, namely our Canadian friend Kevin, and Bradley, another friend from Rockhampton. The reason for this is twofold; firstly, it was their idea, and secondly, you don't go to many of these places with a single vehicle, it's too remote not to have a backup.

The other reason this trip is different is that Wothahellizat won't be joining us, we'll be traveling with just the Landcruiser. Many of the places we intend to visit are not suitable for a large truck, so we'll use this trip as a recce, a quick look-see to find the places we want to spend some serious time in. Then, over the next few years, we'll return to those places we identify as being suitable for a long stay with the truck.

So that's the plan, let's see how it turns out.

Till next time then, and remember,

don't dream it, be it!
