Anyone been to Oz who can put some dots on my itinerary?

Anyone been to Oz who can put some dots on my itinerary?

Post by Chris Corbyn »

The google maps link is way to long to post so this page will redirect you to my itinerary thus far:

http://w3style.co.uk/~d11wtq/itinerary.php

(WARNING - It takes a good 30 seconds or so to load on my Intel Core 2 Duo with all the JS stuff Google Maps has to do to display the link!)

I have 3 huge gaps I need some help filling in the blanks on because my travel guides don't seem to offer much in the way of information on what's in these regions.

I know this is a PHP forum, and I have posted on Thorn Tree too, but if there any Aussies here, or anyone who's done a similar route before, could someone suggest reasonable stopping points for these links? :)

1. The gap between Cairns and Katherine
2. The gap between Darwin and Alice Springs
3. The gap between Yulara and Adelaide

I'm completely in the dark!

Cheers,

Chris

Wow, I posted this over 6 hours ago and have been reading since but I finally found what I needed and even found time to get my itinerary blogged :)

Walking, Lazing, Sightseeing, Drinking, "Socialising", Diving, Sailing, Photography, Blogging. A trip like this is one of the bigger trips you can take but Greyhound do offer routes up to 20,000Km which basically takes you to the western coast too. I can't do all that before xmas though :) I thought it would be really cool to buy a camper van and get a group of people to come along, all chipping in for petrol but it's unlikely I'd find anyone in agreement with said route :P You can save a fortune by buying a vehicle then selling it once you're done though.
