This is the start of another one of our Odyssey trips. We have had an appointment in Townsville for almost a year and had been prepared to fly up and back, but have decided that we have the luxury of a holiday with no set date to return, so we will embark on a road trip north. We have planned the first 17 days, mostly because they are to places we really want to make sure we can visit, then it will be a case of where we choose to wander.
