Tips on planning stops on a long journey

[slowtrip]

x2...bird life here is liking watching a David Attenborough special 

I'm a bit of a photographer, just as a hobby, so I have noted this well

All this advice is good until your out there and you cannot get internet!!!
Have your plans made before you get out of Internet range. Pretty hard to make plans in the middle of nowhere.
Must have Telstra as a minimum.
There are roaming internet services available for a very large cost.

Oh yes.  I am starting early, and want most of it set before we begin.

When we travelled to northern WA I found the Main Roads website has a list of roadside stops listed along the route we were following. 
Have a look on the qld version, I found good info on https://publications.qld.gov.au there are maps but also look for Motorist Rest Area Tables, that looks pretty helpful..
