The plan, to travel from Jabiru (Kakadu National Park) to Exmouth Western Australia and back in 3 weeks.
I aim not to rush it too much and stop and see the sights. On my westward journey I will go across the Gibb River road and up to Mitchell Falls then travel eastwards via Halls Creek and Wolfe Creek crater.

First stop, Evelyn creek. Where Evelyn poses

This section of the trip is unfortunately all on bitumen...

Quick Ice Coffee stop at Victoria River Roadhouse.

Sure wish we could own "real trucks" in the US, that aren't 25+ years old.

Yep, everything over here equates to a gigantic fuel sucking "bohemuth" or has been neutured by the OEM's for the soccer moms ..... Toyota is probably doing the best job as far as their stateside offerings are concerned.

Nice! Lovely video. You sure travel fast. We average 80 miles a day.....but I guess it is all about time on hand.
