Hello all.
The family and I are heading off Friday (29th June) after work. The Prado's packed, the camper's packed and the good wife is in the kitchen marinating some meat finalising the meals.
Kadina (SA) - Marree - William Creek - Coober Pedy - Marree - Pipilatjatjara, (Surveyor Generals Corner) - Uluru - Up the through the Finke to Boggy Hole - Palm Valley - Alice - Trephina Gorge - Chambers Pillar - back down the Oodnadatta - back home to Kadina.
If you see the car, say g'day. Nothing better than a beer and a yack with a fellow traveller.

Cheers,
Grant.

Mate it is NEVER long enough when you have to go back to work.

It is a beautiful moment when back at home in the Hum drum of life and you find some red dust under a mat etc when cleaning the car.

Enjoy your trip, I am out that way in September.
