 The time is here, the time is now, it's time, it's time we head to, well it's a Darwin first but we're heading to Bali man. So this video is going to be, this video might be you know pretty uh, pretty unexpected, some of you guys did know I was going, some of you guys didn't, sorry I'm slurring my words right now, I've only had three hours of sleep, probably two actually. I don't really care about sleep right now, it's uh, it's Thursday the first of November, it's 3.55 in the morning and I'm about to go and pick up my sister and we're going to head off to Darwin. So this video is going to be called Alice Springs to Darwin in the same theme that I did my previous travel vlog. So let me just spell out what we're going to do, Alice Springs to Darwin, Darwin to Bali, I'm going to go Bali to China, China to Hong Kong, Hong Kong to Bali, Bali to Darwin, Darwin to Alice Springs but the first leg and the last leg we're driving, so me and my sister, I'm about to go pick her up, Alice Springs to Darwin, it's 1500 kilometers, I've done it plenty of times before, it's four in the morning, I've got no time to lose, it's probably like 15 hours of driving. My sister and I decided to share this drive, save some money, I don't know whether it's a good idea or not, ask me, ask me in 15 more hours but in the meantime we're going to get some coffee, I'm going to go pick her up, put the suitcases in the car and we're going to head off, completely pitch black outside, you know I'm going to come back to you guys when it's sunrise, probably about six o'clock. Okay pillow for the drive and the plane, absolutely essential, sunglasses, I'm going to switch this off, lock her up and we're off. It's a friggin 55 meter long truck, that's called a road train and that's because we're in central Australia and that road you see behind me is 3,000 kilometers long, that's over 2,000 miles guys, the Stuart Highway, so anyways as you can see the sun is up, it's exactly six in the morning and we're at our first stop, Tea Tree, the Tea Tree Roadhouse, so Anna's inside, we're going to get another coffee, we're at 200K's in, we've got 1,300 to go, I'm going to stop up the car, get another coffee and I'll see you soon. We're on mate and we're in Tenant Creek, believe it or not, how you feeling? Buddy good, need this coffee. Yeah it's uh, I don't know if you can see that right there, it's 909, we've been going for five hours, it could be a quick look, a quick look at what we've got going on which is not a lot, as you know and it's raining, oh okay so 500K's we've got 1,000 to go, probably 900 or something actually, that sounds a lot better, we'll stick at 900, 990K's to go, I want to say thanks for being here, this is Alice Springs to Darwin, I'll see you in a bit. Alright everybody, we've made it to a place they call Elliott and there's fuck all here as well, there is one cool thing that I wanted to climb but I'm not going to, I don't know if you can see that but that's a that's a massive water tower and you'll probably see a few of those around here because of the fact that it is absolutely stifling hot right now, it's fucking, I'd say it's at least 40 degrees Celsius, I'm not sure if you can see that either but we've got 735 kilometers to go, if you guys have come traveling with me recently you'll have seen a hell of a lot of this coloured dirt, that means we're in the Northern Territory and it's about time we continue, so two coffees down, 760 kilometers down, 735 to go, I'll see you there.
