A little planning…

So of course a big focus for our trip is how much planning we do with regards to the two big questions- WHERE and WHEN?

We have to make sure we see and do as much as we can in the time that we have, so therefore complete spontaneity isn’t really an option. But we want some flexibility to be able to stay somewhere a bit longer, or follow a “must see” tip from a fellow traveller or Facebook friend. We also needed to plan the trip hypothetically to see if we actually made it around the country and back to Sydney by the time Term 4 started. As much as we might be loving our travels we can’t still be in WA at the end of September!

After family discussions and advice from friends we’ve pretty much locked in our route. This schedule sees us in North Queensland during the July school holidays. So even though we haven’t booked any other places to stay we thought it made sense to book powered sites using our BIG4 membership for the Whitsundays, Townsville and Cairns. These places look nothing like the caravan parks I remember as a kid!

If you have any “must see” stops for us please share.

Cheers, Scott.
