2 sleeps to go before I start my road trip down.
Making lists, checking them twice. Trying to decide if I'll be naughty or nice.

I needed to make sure of what I needed to buy etc, so I had to get it all out of the storage room anyway.

Rather than pack it back away, I packed it in the trailer

Hard to make sense of the forecast, "Possible showers". Looks like we could be in for a bit of mixed weather but with some (hopefully) clear skies in between!

Now, how do I get there? Follow people with pasty white skin towing big trailers?

OK, time to check out the maps.

Oops! Something went terribly wrong.
The URL http://www.iceinspace.com.au/iisac/iisac2011/IISAC2011-HowToGetThere.pdf that you requested, was not found on this server. Please check the address for typing errors or visit our homepage.


I know when I'm not wanted.


But the general map and aerial get me close. And I got Google Maps on the job OK.
