When Willow’s not hanging out on the van roof her second favourite place to curl up is on the bench watching the world go by outside.

Van cat, travelling cat, house cat. A cardboard box is a cardboard box. Picked up some groceries and I just haven’t got the heart to throw it away.

What a wild ride! Borroloola to Mataranka. 560km in two days, mostly gravel and only one flat tyre. Looking forward to an easy ride on the highway up to Darwin. After so many creek crossings and dust I have no idea how Willow looks this good.

We have made it to the Northern Territory! Very happy to have that 500km dirt road behind us with no flat tyres, but not without checking on others who weren’t so lucky. We are now near Borroloola for the night before we head North to Darwin.

Good morning from Doomadgee, Queensland. Today we can’t decide if we are staying put or driving. I guess we’ll have a nap while we decide.

Such a joy to have Willow as my travel mate around Australia.

I was cleaning out the van this afternoon and Willow decided to help as best she could. Mt Isa, Qld.

When we’re parked in the shade Willow likes to spend hot dry afternoons on my roof rack watching the day pass

Willow and I having a chat as the sun sets. Biggendon, Qld.
