A friend has travelled the pacific between ballina and sydney up to a dozen or more times and year for the last 10 years and dosn't mind it.
Never changes his driving habits either ,always travels this bit of road through the day 8.00 to 5.00 never at night or early mornings,never at holiday times its just not up to coping with the volume of traffic .
I thinks his logic makes a lot of sense , most all the southbound overnight transport leaving brisbane hits the north coast just on dark,
most all the northbound overnighters pass through just on dawn.
I hope your daughter finds her new life all she hopes for Ken

So does this mean you've got a reason to head up to astrofest later in the year ?
