Comments: This trip is amazing! I am researching Outback journeys and until I read of your exploits in 2002 in 'Tanami' I never knew that anybody had done this, and am totally inspired by your passion and dedication. I have read and heard of other people doing trips with camels but they are not really in the same league as your journey, as you went cross country straight across the desert. No roads for you where possible!! I suspect that you have under emphasised the logistical challenges it must have taken to get the expedition up and running and the fact that you did this only with camels and without vehicle support speaks volumes for your organisation and animal handling skills. You were a cohesive team of five. And you are right about the book - that wasn't the purpose of the journey to write a book, so keep those wonderful memories private. Well done Andrew. Stephanie.
Comments: hi andrew you probably won't remember me, a canadian woman who contacted you about your camel trips. (i met you on a sunset tour near kings canyon.) but rereading the tanami book and revisiting your website is wonderful when it is -30 C here in northern canada. probably no threat of frostbite on your trips, eh? is the drought and fire situation a hazard to your camels and your business? we see scenes of firefighters and blazes in s. e. oz. hope all is well. mary
Comments: Hi Andy I really enjoyed your journal. It's nice to know that there are still some adventurer's out there. You are definitely one of them. I recently had a taste of the Outback down Marree way. Loved it! Wouldn't want to do what you did though, not at my age. Please don't be so modest, if all you did was walk, everyone else would be doing it. What happened to the pooch, and the camels? Dick Cotton IOW, UK
Comments: Hi Andrew Had a lot of fun trying to find your plate on the Hay river this September (07). Found it eventually. Incredible journey John (Colo)
Comments: G'Day Andrew, I travelled 4000kms (by plane) before I learnt of your journey, which is a shame because you only live about 50kms from where I grew up in Tocumwal, NSW and I would have loved to pick your brain about your journey. I'm presently planning a similar journey from Perth to Melbourne - let's see how that turns out eh? http://www.intotherisingsun.com Peace Be The Journey nate the cameleer |
