Our Big Lap of OZ - In Video - In Pictures Here...
As with everyone else in the world COVID changed our lifestyle. For us it was all about how to maintain our way of life while negotiating all the challengers that were on going. To this end we decided to buy a 4x4 and Caravan to Travel and House Petsit in OZ...
So the big Lap was born and what an adventure it was... Traveling and House Petsitting in all States and Territories of Australia, was a bucket list item, along with experiencing all the things we were yet to do in OZ...
Below is the current story of the big lap... enjoy we have...

QUEENSLAND
