Lord Cyric Just sit back and enjoy the ride...! Donating Members 1,121 Member For: 21y 9m 29d Gender: Male Location: Sydney, NSW Posted 03/06/05 06:26 AM Share Posted 03/06/05 06:26 AM If you live in Perth, Adelaide or Melbourne... the "BLACK BEAST" will be coming your way in early September... Call me mad... call me looney... yes, it's all true. Regardless, I am planning a long coast-to-coast driving holiday...This trip is based around the fact that I am presenting tutorials at the SAGE-AU 2005 Technical Conference which is in Perth on September 5-9 and I have this urge to knock over a large chunk FBT miles. I'm planning to take ~10 days to leisurely make my way back home after the conference by basically following the southern coastline from Perth back to Sydney.For those who know me, I'm a bit of a photographic nutcase. So I'm looking for some ideas on interesting places to visit on the "fun drive" home. I have a rough outline of places I'll be visiting...Perth: Meet the locals, BBQ, go for a cruise.... In WA: Caves Rd, Margaret River, Cape Naturaliste Lighthouse, Albany, Wave Rock, Esperance, "The 90 Mile Straight", Eyre Bird ObservatoryIn SA: Head of Bight, Fowler's Bay, Smoky Bay, Murphy's Haystacks, Port LincolnAdelaide: Voy, I trust you can keep me amused for a day or two...In VIC: Great Ocean Road of course!!!Melbourne: Meet the locals, BBQ, Friday night drags, maybe even a visit to Kittens???If anyone has any other suggestions, I'd be more than happy to hear them.Cheers, Phil.PS. Yes, I know it's four months away... but my schedule is just nuts between now and September. Most of this month I'm overseas for work, then I'll be Pommie-bashing through July (Fanatics UK Tour) and then back on the road for work in August....

Mondie Firm Member Donating Members 2,924 Member For: 22y 7m 21d Location: Adelaide Hills Posted 09/06/05 12:45 PM Share Posted 09/06/05 12:45 PM LC, the southern NSW coast is magical and a photographers paradise. l highly recommend Merimbula and some of the neat places north from there. Hell it would take me 10 days to get from Merimbula to Sydney there's so much to see.

It takes a dive towards the coast, and is much quieter and driver friendly than the main hwy.. Take in the few boutique breweries down there, aswell as the wineries..
