2 ~~~ Just Cruising with Mick & Sally ~~~ www.youtube.com/results?search_query=JustCruisin+with+Mick+%26+Sallywww.youtube.com/channel/UCiBxVDBp2uMSgSo-123t9pQ/about= Catch our caravan and camping holidays as we travel Australia. This maybe for short periods of time as we are both still working. Watch our extended trips when we are lucky enough to be on annual leave from our work places.
Before we head of on any holiday trip with the caravan, we always search YouTube for others who have completed similar trips to what we are about to do with their experiences helping us to discover new things that we may perhaps otherwise have missed out on. Here we hope to share what we have seen and hopefully inspire others to enjoy what we ourselves enjoy.
Watch our videos that show some of the things that we have done to our caravan & tow vehicle that make life just that bit easier when out and about.
Fresh content will be uploaded every second Sunday, or more often when material is available for uploading. www.youtube.com/channel/UCiBxVDBp2uMSgSo-123t9pQ/videos |

5 ~~~ 7 1/2 Days in a Road Train - 2022 Flood Detour - Trailer ~~~ With the heavy rains causing road closures in the mid north of South Australia as well as the railway line being damaged, triple road trains were permitted to hook up in Burra in the mid north of South Australia to head through New South Wales and into Queensland before heading onto Darwin via the Northern Territory. It is over a thousand kilometer detour for the heavy vehicles to make to deliver their freight. With over seventy Gig of recorded data from the trip, it will take some time to sort through what will make up a series of videos of the trip. Here is a sample of what you will see. m.youtube.com/watch?v=aoRo3buz-7w ~ 3:18 ~ 9 February 2022 ~ JustCruising with Mick & Sally ~ |

6 ~~~ 7 1/2 Days in a Road Train - Part 1 of 5 ~ ~~ JustCruising with Mick & Sally ~~~ Part 1 is the first installment of a 5 part series of videos that shows the detour I had to take in February 2022 to transport freight in a triple Road Train from Adelaide in South Australia to Darwin in the Northern Territory. The Government had granted triple Road Trains supplementary access for 28 days to the Northern Territory via Burra in South Australia through New South Wales coming out at the bottom of Queensland. This was only ever a double Road Train route, triple Road Trains were not normally allowed on these roads. I have taken my camera gear along with me on this seven and a half day road trip in a triple Road Train to film as much of the floods and journey that I thought might be of some interest to anyone. At the time of leaving Adelaide in South Australia, it was still raining along some of the roads that I would travel on causing road closures along the way. As I moved from State to State, I could only hope that these temporary road closures would not cause me to sit stationary waiting for areas to dry out so that I could continue. m.youtube.com/watch?v=w3DXwWE0UwA ~ 29:23 ~ 12 February 2022 ~ 91K views ~ |

7 ~~~ 7 1/2 Days in a Road Train - Part 2 of 5 ~~~ In Part 2 I leave Charleville in Queensland heading for Camooweal which is the last town in Queensland before the Queensland Northern Territory Border. Some of what I considered to be the best scenery was between Cloncurry and Mount Isa where the hills were. Although there was some water around as I moved through Queensland, it wasn’t as wet as what it was along the Barkly after entering the Northern Territory as you will see later in Part 3. Part 2 is the second installment of a 5 part series of videos that shows the detour I had to take in February 2022 to transport freight in a triple Road Train from Adelaide in South Australia to Darwin in the Northern Territory. m.youtube.com/watch?v=yxr-g9Cpot0 ~ 20:11 ~ 19 February 2022 ~ 28K views ~ JustCruising with Mick & Sally ~ |

8 ~~~ 7 1/2 Days in a Road Train - Part 3 of 5 ~~~ In Part 3, I leave Camooweal which is the last town in Queensland before the Queensland Northern Territory Border before finally arriving at Darwin, the capital of the Northern Territory. As I cross the Barkly you will see plenty of water near the road and evidence of where the road was closed to traffic at times. It was a cold shower for me at the Barkly Homestead before I made my way to Three Ways for the night. Part 3 is the third installment of a 5 part series of videos that shows the detour I had to take in February 2022 to transport freight in a triple Road Train from Adelaide in South Australia to Darwin in the Northern Territory. m.youtube.com/watch?v=oBFvbAGbd1s ~ 22:20 ~ 26 February 2022 ~ 17K views ~ JustCruising with Mick & Sally ~ |

9 ~~~ 7 1/2 Days in a Road Train - Part 4 of 5 ~~~ JustCruising with Mick & Sally ~~~ In Part 4, I leave Darwin in the Northern Territory and make my way down south to Alice Springs where I am legally required to have a 24 hour rest period before making my way down to Coober Pedy where this video will finish. Make sure you watch Part 5 which will show the flooded area around Glendambo in South Australia which was the reason for the detour that sent the Road Trains through New South Wales and Queensland. Part 4 is the third installment of a 5 part series of videos that shows the detour I had to take in February 2022 to transport freight in a triple Road Train from Adelaide in South Australia to Darwin in the Northern Territory. m.youtube.com/watch?v=79Gv89lTBAE ~ 21:04 ~ 5 March 2022 ~ 12K views ~ |

10 ~~~ 7 1/2 Days in a Road Train - Part 5 of 5 ~ JustCruising with Mick & Sally ~~~ In Part 5, I arrive at Glendambo in South Australia to cross the flooded section of road which caused the detour through New South Wales and Queensland in the first place. Once through the flooded section I make my way towards Adelaide in South Australia before camping for my last night in the truck near Port Augusta. Part 5 is the final installment of a 5 part series of videos that shows the detour I had to take in February 2022 to transport freight in a triple Road Train from Adelaide in South Australia to Darwin in the Northern Territory m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEuX6VHVaQs&t=13s ~ 26:49 ~ 12 March 2022 ~ |

13 ~~~ Awning Roof Extenda - Review We were asked to trial this Roof Extenda and after doing so it was decided to do this very quick review to let you know our thoughts on it. We were not asked to do this review nor are we being paid to do a review, it has been done on the off chance that some viewers may like to know where we got it from. There are several makers offering these shades as an accessory item to their stores. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaglnUojof8 ~ 2:58 ~ 9 April 2022 ~ 1.4K views ~ |
