Australia is an ideal country for motorhoming, so Vic and Pam
Quayle headed to Sydney, bought Matilda and headed out to see the
country. Their travels took them to familiar tourist spots, such as
Uluru, Kings Canyon, Great Ocean Road and the Whitsunday Isles, but
also to other gems, such as the Bungle Bungles, Lake Eyre, and
Tunnel Creek. They fed dolphins, watched a turtle laying eggs, and
even handled a python. The wildlife was never far away and they saw
kangaroo, dingo, wild camels and more. Matilda took them to
deserted beaches and down lonely, desert tracks; they visited small
towns and communities, and travelled through the remote Outback.
They enjoyed terrific Australian hospitality, even celebrating
Christmas in November with one family, and spent many an evening
yarning round a campfire with a tinnie under the stars.Pam and Vic
learned about the Long Paddock, the origins of QANTAS, how
Australia nearly became a Dutch or French colony; they followed the
original Ghan railway and watched sheep being shearing. Their
hobbies were indulged as well. Pam went to the Australian Open
Tennis, and Vic got involved with a car rally.On the road, they had
all manner of adventures and overcame some problems with Matilda.
During their travels, there was tragedy, the joy of an unexpected
birth, even a stay in hospital. 'Waltzing Matilda Around Australia'
is their story, but beware - having read it, you will want to go
yourself.
