How many km in 20 days???

There's a few 8 hour days in the middle of long haul trips either end of the trip. But when we set up its for 3 - 5 nights at a time.

The trouble is we have to be 2000km away for a function but only have 3 weeks off. No choice is right!

Thanks for your reply boobook.

Please take your preaching and pontificating elsewhere. Timnivo.

Electrical devices can also be educational

Each to their own I guess............

Sure glad my parents took an interest in teaching about Oz when we traveled about, something we did with our own kids as well.

Always had a "What Bird is That" book in the car, still do.

Our kids were given the old Kodak Instamatic cameras along with a few rolls of film and we were never in too much of a hurry to stop for an interesting scene. Kids kept a journal of the trips and added the photos when they got home. 40 years on they still have them and share with their children who do the same.

Yeah Woodsie78

Give your kids an instamatic and a few rolls of film.

The trip challenge will be how the hell do we get instamatic film developed. You'll save a fortune on developing costs, there won't be any.

Bruce you say each to their own, but preach "do as I do", or more accurately 'do now as I did 40 years ago, when I was a parent of small kids'

I don't recall the OP asking for parenting advice. And he probably doesn't need it from people who have no idea what it's like bringing up a kid these days.

Sheeez. Talk about answering a question that was never asked.

I reckon you'll be fine esp if the kids travel well. A fair few ks but doesn't seem too much.

As for the kids, those gadgets are great to keep them occupied along with other distractions. We let ours use them but also told them to give it a rest too. You must be doing something right if they travel well. Ours actually like travelling and always have. I think it's the over-indulged that struggle. These trips are future great memories.

Have a good trip.

Thanks! (My iPad wont let me tick the thanks box!)

G'day,

last year we drove 13,000 kms in 6 weeks and we did and saw heaps.

Someone did the maths before and that shows it's pretty easy.
Depends on where you're going because if you have big stretches it's easy to do 400 or 500 kms in a day.

Hoo roo,
Steve

Awesome! Thanks heaps.

Where are you thinking of going?

Your distance was pretty specific.

Steve

Not a fan of revealing too much online but across a state or two!

Fair enough.

Have fun.

If you're used to it, I'm sure it's not a problem but our crew only travel occasionally. It will be a great adventure!
