Now in its fifth edition, Explore Australia by Caravan and Motorhome is better than ever! This caravanning bible now includes an additional 400 caravan park listings, bringing the total list to over 1000 listings for caravan parks around the country. For every listing, there are new symbols to highlight if a park is dog-friendly, if there is a dump point available, and if the park is a member of a major caravan organisations (BIG4, Top Tourist Parks, Family Parks, Aspen Parks, Discovery Holiday Parks and Oz Parks). As well as these fantastic new features, all of the information has been rechecked and updated, so that authors John and Jan Tait can share their unrivalled knowledge of how best to see Australia by caravan. The touring section at the front outlines suggested itineraries with new mapping that highlights the caravan parks listed at the back with numbers. And the listings at the back still highlight John and Jan's favourite caravan parks - those with stunning waterfront sites, pancakes every Sunday or boat ramps for fishing might score a special mention as 'Authors' Choice' parks. In paperback for easy in-car reference, this is the ultimate guidebook for the free-spirited traveller.

Spending the kids' inheritance. Growing old disgracefully. Life begins at 50. You see these catchy phrases on bumper stickers, tea towels and even t-shirts, but all jokes aside, there is one thing we all know - no matter how old our driver's license says we are, we all feel much younger at heart. And travel goes a long way in keeping you young. Inside this book you'll find hundreds of holiday ideas across Australia and New Zealand, from luxury escapes to walking holidays, bike rides, train journeys, golfing trips, garden tours and unforgettable wildlife encounters. Now that you've got the mortgage monkey off your back and a bit of a nest egg to spend, time on your hands if you have retired - or cut back on the working hours - and the kids are old enough to look after themselves (even if they haven't yet left home), it's the perfect time to travel, particularly while you're still fit and active enough to really enjoy it. After all, you've earned it.
