2013 road trip ?

[Stickman]

The feeling is mutual big brother.

Will have to camp in the van park with you and Cheryl as I'm pulling the passenger seat out and making a makeshift bed in Donkey for the trip so he will be my accommodation for the cruise.

It's gonna be awesome!

[Leadfoot_Liz]

if your a good boy like last time,
and dont wet the bed

you can share with me sometimes,

and Greg......

Dave cq has confirmed travelling with us he will not be leaving until Friday with this being the case and Russ not leaving until sunday morning we will stall our travels to allow them to catch up. This being the case the planned great ocean road will be on the return travel plans this will allow more time.
I will show a proposed itinerary with a day in canberra to buy Russ and Dave some time. With a war museum, mint and telecom tower site seeing.

If anyone cares to join us at any stage feel to. I hope to pre book and prepay accommodation in the coming days as it will be school holidays. Also we will be traveling with my son and this blows our budget out a little as they charge $30 on average for the third bed. I will post where I book in with the contact details so others can arrange accommodation to suit there own budget.
FEEL FREE TO ADJUST ITENERY IF IT DOES NOT WORK I AM OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS. IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS.

Sounds like a plan Greg!
We are doing the ultra-cheap trip, the reason being we are planning on taking Long Service leave to go to Tassie for a month next year.
Tracy is work involved this year, so it looks like Rhys & I wll make the trip & travel with Gary Carter. We will leave on Thursday 26th and return Wednesday 2nd sharing cheap cabins.
Sorry we won't be able to travel with you, but are already saving for Tassie.
For your Canberra stopover, you know you are all welcome here for whatever kind of stop you like - Barbie - lunch - dinner - brekkie. We can sleep 6 in beds, after that we start putting tents up!
The War Museum is great, Tower is worth a visit, but I haven't been to the Mint (sad admission!) but is is said to be good too.

Sounds like another epic trip!
Cheers, Matt.
