then head off first light to West Wyalong through to Dubbo for thurs night

first light again and off to Sawtell 8) 8) 8)

would of been great to have a few more cars for the convoy over but 2 cars will be just as fun :D :D

if anyone is allong the path we are taking maybe we could catch up join the line

hope everyone has a safe and trouble free trip 8) 8)
