Re: Nomads
Toward the mid/end of April I am driving up to Darwin via Queensland then returning through the red centre via Alice Springs and SA. You could get the general idea on
>>>Google Maps Here<<< and
>>>returning this way<<<
This is my rough calculation of places and distances but I will be taking my time and taking lots of side trips and detours.

I'll use at least 800 litres of diesel and will camp in some places and use motels in others; I reckon it will take about 6 weeks
There is a great temptation after Darwin to carry on to Broome and Perth then come back across the Nullarbor Plain but that might have to wait until next year.
Should be fun but and it is a bit nomadic isn't it?
