@bigcol , we have been planning it for so long it is hard to believe we are finally going to do it, 9 weeks to go!man, you guys are soooo going to enjoy your trip................
And keep a diary.....and get the kids to do the same. Great memories to be built.
Hi @benmat . Your trip is a lot like ours, except we leave on July 2nd and will be doing the gibb, and leaving off Melbourne as we did that 2 Christmases ago. Just unsure of our return journey. Have planned up until Brisbane and then stopped, so I guess we will play it by ear then.Our first big trip has been in the planning stages for quite some time...leaving 18 July from Perth and will be back a week or so before Christmas. With a 3.5yr and 1.5 year old, shouldn't be a dull moment. The bottom of WA is just going to be stop overs and to see family (as we head down there annually). Looking to spend most the time across the top and through the middle.

Lucky "Bugga's"our 3 week trip is only 2 1/2 weeks away starting to get itchy feet .
Next draft might be go in down the Oodnadatta track to Maree and up to Birdsville as all the rest can be cut off into another trip. Any one done the Oodnadatta or Birdsville track in there van. I'm sure it would be up to it but haven't really tested it yet?
That's what we,no kids, are doing just for sat night just to make sure everything is working and we don't need to change something before we go awayOur 3 weeks away is around 6 weeks off, might try and fit a night away before hand.
