Hay Plain, via Deniliquin, New South Wales

Hunting the Wild Plains Wanderer – Deniliquin, New South Wales

September 20, 2017 Red Nomad OZ Bird watching, Deniliquin, Murray Valley National Park, New South Wales, Plains Wanderer Weekend Tour

They’d scented fresh blood. And in the deathly silence of twilight as dusk fell over the moonlit plain, I could hear them coming for me. A million manic mosquitoes, and I couldn’t move a muscle. Actually, that’s a lie. I COULD move – but I’d chosen not to. For 3 good reasons. Firstly, listening for the call of the enigmatic[…]

RED Alert #13 – WA Explorer REDiscovers RED!

December 11, 2015 Red Nomad OZ Interview, Red Alert, Things to do

Size DOES matter – at least for monster state Western Australia! But to make the most of all the amazing attractions and fantastic things to do you need a guide.

RED Alert #8: A Double-half of RED!

April 13, 2013 Red Nomad OZ Interview, Red Alert, Travel

Be honest. If YOU saw a blog called Double-half or One Ten without Ham you’d just HAVE to check it out, right?

So why do I repeatedly find myself with shots that could have been taken … well … ANYWHERE?? See if you recognise any of THESE! 1 The Fishing[…]

5 Cool BLUE and 5 RED Hot Aussie TOP SPOTS!

October 30, 2012 Red Nomad OZ Bitter Springs, Evans Head, Grampians National Park, Lake Argyle, Mataranka, New South Wales, Northern Territory, Outback, South Australia, Victoria, Western Australia, Yorke Peninsula

Is BLUE the new RED? It is downunder where blue and red have been interchangeable for YEARS! But before you start thinking us Aussies are a nation of colour-blind fools, it’s all due to the colloquial contrariness that means we call things the opposite to what they are. So a tall person becomes ‘Shorty’. A skinny person becomes ‘Fatso’. And[…]

Australia’s Scenic Public Toilets #18 – The Most Glamorous Little Outhouse in OZ! One Tree Hill, SA

October 14, 2011 Red Nomad OZ Adelaide, Adelaide Hills, Loos with Views, One Tree Hill, Scenic Public Toilets, South Australia

Don’t let the stone lion fool you. We’re not at a garage sale of ‘Chronicles of Narnia’ props. And don’t be fooled into thinking the building behind the lion is a gatehouse. Oh no! It’s an Outback Outhouse. Or so it was described by the waitress at surreal Art Through Da Vince’s Eyes, a Roman Devonshire Coffee House (a set of[…]
