    got back from camping on the weekend and had an amazing time. I’ve gotta say guys, tidal river is just the best. Its camping lite. You have hot showers, you can go grab a coffee and a bacon and egg roll in the morning, there is Drinkable water. If you have never been camping you should consider giving it a go. Heck, reach out to me and I can recommend all the gear you need for under 100 bucks. the amount of folks rocking a Kmart tent was pretty nuts. And you’ll come back feeling so recharged you’ll wonder why you didnt do it sooner.

      Sounds like you had a great place, we went near Licola and had a river nearby and nothing else, but we have a lot of gear and a camper trailer so we were pretty set. I love being in the outdoors and away from everything, eating and sitting around or paddling in the river, really just doing fuck all.

        I’ve never been, was it nice? I’ve just started looking into camper trailers. Man it is a slippery slope to go down. Do you mind if I ask what you got?

          Licola was lovey, quiet. Our camper is a second hand one from my in-laws it’s an Outback Campers, fairly basic but very solid. In-laws have taken it across the Tanami and Overland tracks.

        Its amazing isnt it? And it can be whatever you need it to be. You cant sit still? theres 100s of walks to go on. You wanna do absolutely 0? the wildlife just wonders through for you to look at and you can go grab lunch at the cafe.
