As a couple of original goers and now being no-goers...  :'(  We are sooooooo jealous / envious!  Have a wonderful, exciting but safe time everyone and we will be watching this forum in a month or so to hear of your adventures (those that can be made public that is).

Bon Voyage  :laugh:

Christ, took us six days to even get there and even then we blew a diff seal on the Carpentaria highway, how much fun is that. Oh well - them's the breaks - Ha Ha..

Here now and caqr booked in for Friday so all good. Apart from that had some magic moments coming all the way across the Gulf, great river crossings - a sign of what's to come. Have caught up with some Swaggers which has been really good, great people. Dinner tonight should be great then a day bunkering down Friday ready to head off Saturday morning

Don't forget to post up some pics of the adventure along the way (where internet access is available).  All us unfortunates at home will be waiting for updates as the days progress.

Have a great trip.
