The BIG trip.
« on: February 14, 2010, 09:51:03 PM »
I may have mentioned this before, but I can't remember, so.

On Thursday morning (18 Feb), I'm heading off to Gawler, SA.

Yes, I'm driving the barge, via The Great Ocean Road.

According to Whereis.com, it's only 1822 kms - one way.  I'm wimping out on the way home (returning around 27 Feb), and taking the direct route through Mildura.

I'm heading over to watch my youngster play basketball.

Wish me luck - hey, wait a minute, I'm in a Pontiac, so there's no problem.:fingers:

And if you run out of road you can always take to the ocean.  Have fun.

Thanks Chris, the next trip for him might be to Germany in April in an invitational tournament with the Australian U/19's.
That's just a little too far to drive the barge.
