Much more enjoyable with an idea of how long it takes to get where we need to be - coming into town at 6pm beats 3pm Some roads were that good today.... we did them twice (on purpose - they were better the 2nd time) :D Keith's naviguessing was on point as always - GPS is for the plebs - inner compass FTW - we definitely didn't end up on dirt roads (and double down on the next corner), double back or get separated at any stage Food has been farkin fantastic - company has been brilliant and the cars have really shown their legs. Scenery is world class - every corner shows a new breath-taking vista, totally different from the last - mountains, hills, coasts, forests, lakes, cliffs, farms etc - all unique and brilliant. The roads though - they make it - our cars were made for them and they for the cars. Camber, corners, decent bitumen, decent width, bugger all traffic, absence of "nanny state enforcements", slower vehicles that move over or wave you past, realistic speed limits (and warning signs) - definitely left to the driver to decide how to drive. 3 more days of this - am sure I passed away peacefully in my sleep thurs night and am now in heaven 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am sure we will. Weather has been spot on and looks set to continue We're now a lot more comfy looking for roads to explore rather than worrying about being at the destination in time Fuel gets a lot more reliable here on out We've got roads to go down that we KNOW are fantastic - plus ones to find that are going to at least equal them We're eating ribs tomorrow night and BBQ on Sunday night We worked out tonight that @EvilDaifu isn't going to make us walk a 2 hour hike up a hill to see something - he'd rather drive too We'll be into Hobart too late tomorrow for you to buy a new CB that we can hear you over (we'll still be able to ignore you) Galway Pipe bottle is still to be opened (we'll leave a message in to that'll be found in years to come and make the news - apparently that's a thing now??) When we leave - we'll KNOW that it's not that hard of a thing to do again next year :D :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll just get one for next cruise. It's a bit frustrating that you guys can't hear me when I'm only about 1km ahead, but I can hear Gary . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
