Well, after much discussion and negotiation, i think the current plan of attack is as follows:
Saturday - Neerim
Sunday - Labertouche / Gembrook / Powelltown
Monday - Wesburn / Warburton
Given that some of us are notorious for starting a little slow in the mornings, i think it is preferable to have the stop overs as close as possible to the starting points of the following day.
So i would propose staying Saturday night in the area between Neerim South and Labertouche, and then Sunday night in Yarra Junction.
I'm thinking Pub dinners both nights if we can swing it, and something like Van/Cabin accomodation if we can find it too.
I recall that there is also a caravan park in Neerim South for people who like to do their driving the night before on the friday.
So, as of today (6-Dec-2010), here is the plan:
Thursday (Noel only)
Spend 10 minutes getting your car moving again, charge battery
Friday (optional)
Drive to Neerim
Sleep at Caravan Park
Saturday - Neerim
Start in Neerim South (fuel is available)
Spend the day driving around Neerim (Dan - i'm hoping we can reply on you for navigation duties here)
Finish day with Pizza / Pub meal
Optional Canary from Warrigal Tog
Stay in Neerim South (pending accom options)
Sunday - Labertouche
Possible fry up brekky?
Start ??
Spend day driving around Labertouche / Gembrook / Powelltown (Dan - sorry mate - you again)
Finish day in Yarra Junction / Warburton (more food and accom in warburton)
Optional european movie viewing
Monday - Warburton
Possible fry up brekky?
Start Yarra Junction supermarket carpark
Spend day driving around Wesburn / Warburton (this area will basically navigate itself since we all know it)
Finish day at a reasonable hour (before 9:30pm) so we can all get home and get some kip before work
i think we should be able to have pretty clear starting points worked out so that late-comers can join us along the way without too much trouble.
too easy. should almost run itself now
