This is Sam and I every morning.

Royals by Lorde

I heard this song in the van whilst driving a while ago and I thought it was brilliant, I actually ended up sitting whilst parked until it finished. It was quite some time before I found out what the song was called. I haven’t done a cover in ages and had some time today so here is Royals by Lorde.

Here’s A LINK to the original. Well worth it.

Olive This is Olive, she lives with us. She’s a ratbag most of the time, but sometimes she’s lovely.

Outdoors Whilst the weather is being so damn brilliant, I’m trying to spend as much time as possible outdoors. Evenings are my favourite, watching the sun creep down the back fence, feeling the night sweep over the street, and putting my feet up and enjoying a drink or four.

We went swimming in creeks today, it was so much fun. Clambering up slippery slopes, sliding down slimy waterfalls and jumping off cliffs, it was always going to be a good time. We found a fruit stand on the way back. Two words, Dried Jackfruit.

Massive Day It’s been a huge day today. We hung out in Mackay for breakfast then moved on to Airlie Beach where we could finally have a big swim and get the weeks worth of dirt of our backs. We hopped around Bowen for a little while and had some food on the beach, and now we’re at a rest stop, not too far from Townsville, where we’ll be spending the weekend with some fantastic folk. Showers have not been had for a week, and it will be good to get clean and have some good fun.

Perfection The van is parked right behind us. The perfect end to an excruciatingly long day.

Jean Claude & Sam It’s been a big ole driving day today, trying to get some big Ks under our belts to make the rest of the week a bit more relaxed. This van has driven us over 2000 kms from our home, yet to skip a beat, and has provided us with a place to sleep every single night. What a darling.

We’ve been free camping ever since we left Byron Bay, and although we’ve stayed at some great places, this one is the best by far. So beautiful. The trip is going swimmingly. Looking forward to actually spending some time places instead of in the van, we’ve been driving way too much. I’m excited to hit Townsville next weekend and see Ruby and hang around there for a few days, it’s going to be brilliant. We’re going to stay where we are now all day tomorrow and paint and play music and all sorts of wonderous things. Well wicked.
