Yes it is long ie: pre-dawn to sunset, but on the right day it is magnificent.
People can pick & choose which parts they want to join if they are not up to the full day.
I can take 4 passengers and I know of at least one other person who can do the same for those without their own transport.

I will have my Sahara with me...but as the family will be down there with me...I would rather try and make it a half day GTG if that is possible. They can take the car and go elsewhere, if I can jump in someone elses car.

It sure has been awhile...where you been?

Let's work around Judi's times, get a date & see who else wants to join in.

I'm keen if I'm not overseas in July. Still in the planning stage for a trip to China in either July/August.
When you have the date let me know and I'll see if I can be in the ye olde Sydney town.

Awesome. At this stage I leave Newcastle on the 7th July and stay in Sydney till the 12th...then we head out to Katoomba on our way towards Dubbo for a few days..and then spend the next week or so making our way back to Central Qld.

Hey Judi,

It's 11pm and Rozy

roz is catching zzzzz's, but I'll talk to her tomorrow. I think we'll both be up for this one, or at least part of it. I think we can make any day suit.
