Hi all!
We have unexpectedly got 10 days off in February and don't know where to go!
We like just driving around exploring different areas of Australia, but all our prior travelling holidays have been during the dry season! Obviously the weather is going to impact our choice this time.
We are in VIC and can either head somewhere driving (fully self sufficient with a GQ Patrol) or we could fly somewhere and hire a car/4WD.
We are tossing around ideas like: east coast, south WA, or possibly
Darwin area during the wet just to experience the 'wet' - but not sure on how much we could see though?
Any suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!!
Mrs Draff

10 days...... to me I'd be staying a bit closer to
home. Have you seen most regions close to you or is there some still on your wish list. If so, go see one of the closer parks, but if they are all burnt out maybe try
Yorke Peninsula SA (or similar) with your GQ. More than about 3 days driving (return) would not leave enough time for me to really unwind on a 10 day holiday. You may be different?????
NQ is HOT and STEAMY this time of year, so to me this is not ideal for holidays, it is bad enough having to go up there this time of year for work so I would not holiday up there right now, again just my opinion.
Have fun wherever you end up.
Regards, Trevor.

Thanks for your advice Trevor - the SA coast/peninsulars sound good! i think that's where we will head!
