Road Trip Australia
Rich and I headed out early today in hopes of trying to make as much distance as possible away from Sydney. Our mode of transportation is a Toyota Land Cruiser 4WD. There's tons of room in the car... that is, until Rich put all of his shit in it. This guy is prepared for anything - tent, gas stove, cooking equip (tho neither of really cooks), water tanks, cleaning stuff, maps & books galore, suit cases, you name it - it's in there. There's a bit of a down side to over packing the car tho. It's a pain in the ass trying to get anything out, and we can't give anyone else a lift. But, I suppose this is the way to camp travel in luxury. Anyhow, we didn't have much of a plan so we just headed out, and I read the guide book as we approached places to decide whether or not to stop there.
