A retrospective journal of our trip from Sydney to the Kimberley April 27th to 10th June
Mark (51) wanna be rally driver & Julie (48) ‘impulsive’ intrepid explorer
Mark's favourite saying whilst driving on unsealed roads 'Momentum is your friend'

This is our 2nd Australian road trip. Our plan to drive from Sydney to the Kimberley via Kalgoorlie, returning via the coast road in 44 days.
Odometer 12945
Our initial plan was to leave as soon as Mark finished work. Mark ended up taking the day off work as his infected toe was looking nasty. We left a little after midday. Our first stop was at Queen Elizabeth Park at Lithgow. I missed most of this part of the trip as I slept having worked night shift the previous night. Our next stop was at the kennels as you drive into Orange to see Mark’s cousin Louise. We had an early dinner at Red Rooster in Orange before pushing onto Trundle and our first night’s accommodation at old family friends. We arrived at Mary & Ellis’s at 6.30. We spent a pleasant evening chatting about places to visit on our trip. An early night was the order of the day as we had a huge drive the next day.
Mileage 413kms
