As you dont seem to have prompted much in the way of response, I'll have my 2 bobs
worth...First up is the time frame...bloody short for that trip..extend if possible, but if not possible..go hard for a few days & get out there...forget QLD..do that another time. Dont expect to average better than 80 kph, with meal stops included. I would
have no concerns re safety when
free camping, hundreds do it every night along every
road in Oz & it never makes the papers...a great way to save $$ too. I doubt you will
find others wanting to travel "with " you, but dont be concerned..you will find plenty of folk doing the same thing. Keep the boys amused, they are unlikely to share your
particular travelling interests. Involve them in planning & setting up
camp etc.
Maintain your sense of humour & you will have a ball, good luck with it all.
cheers....oldbaz.
