Hi
im relocating from perth to Wagga in NSW in June. I plan to drive from Perth to NSW via adelaide and Melbourne.
I hope to see as much of whats in between as possible (3500kms should hopefully be some good stuff to see)

I have a nissan patrol 4*4 with bucket loads of room, so space is not a problem. Im bringing surf boards and kiting gear, and anyone who wants to join me on a mission is more than welcome to bring toys!!
I plan to leave early june.

Im very easy going and quite adventurous and always up for a laugh.
My mobile No is 0408996388
or my e-mail is g_huck@hotmail.com

cheers gez Rolling on floor laughing

Ah, mate, you're in for a boring ride ... so many would say. Roll Eyes Wink  On the other hand, I've driven from Perth to Brisbane, and the Perth to Adelaide stretch, across the Nullarbor Plains, is far from boring, but only if you take time to stop and look around. Yes

There are many diversions crossing the Nullarbor if you keep your eyes open.  Obviously, you'll need to have time to do this.  If your trip is time limited, then you'll miss quite a lot of interesting places and sights.  The time of year for the trip also makes a difference.

My advice, if you've never done this before, is to keep your eyes open and be observant.  Keep your camera handy for photo opportunities; you'd be surprised what you might see on the road!  And, if you have time, take a few of the 'side tracks'.  There's some spectacular scenery to be photographed too. Grin

I wish I could join you.  It would bring back some fab memories. Yes  Whether or not you manage to find a companion/s, do enjoy the trip.  Take your time, if you can, and remember, it's something most people never get the chance to do! Thumb Up

Safe trip, mate. Beers cheers

Hi yeah its should be an awesome trip.
been researching whats to see and do and it looks like there's a lot of stuff going on.

there is a slight date change I plan to set off in mid May now, as my new job wants me to start a wee bit earlier.

thanks
