Exactly, want to make a road trip out of it and not just rush in and out.

Same with me, i think even going a completely different way would be even more interesting and camping out somewhere like a caravan park.

I think the drive is probably 50% of the fun!

As Shenal said id rather enjoy it than endure it.

I should be making it this year.

I really hope i do :)

I dont know about hotels though, that will bump up the price of the trip significantly!

Blowup mattress and a tent in a caravan park halfway i reckon.

Anyone know of good places to camp?

From my travels on the road... We use to use Big4 parks to camp in... They use to be really cheap ... And nice and clean ...
I just had to add it ......

    I'm considering it also. I'm thinking about coordinating a longer trip to my old hometown in QLD as well after the bonfire (or maybe before... hmm) but is only a thought at this stage.

    Should be able to link up with Tarkus and Nacho on the way through Melbourne. Theyll most likely make the trip again.
