Road Trip Brisbane Queensland to Adelaide, South Australia



Planning road trip along coast of Australia? 

We done it before, so we would like to share our road trip in Australia.
We start from our friend house at Logan, then stay over night at friend house in Condale, NSW after Xmas party.

Day 1  27th Dec 2015

Condale, NSW

We just chill out and relaxing, we having a bit drink at Condale after couples hours driving from Brisbane. Condale is nice country town to stop and relaxing. Condale is just 20-30 min to Byron Bay, NSW. If you never been to Byron Bay, stop in here and they have nice restaurant, beaches, and good life music in the night at bar & resto. We didn't stop at Byron Bay this time because we been at Byron Bay previously.

Day 2 28th Dec 2015

Manly, NSW

We were wake up early morning and after having cup of coffee, we start driving from Condale about 6am to Manly, we arrived in Manly about 5pm. We made 1 stop to have breakfast at Ulmarra Pub Hotel, nice spot for breakfast and good view.
We stop at Port Macquarie and we had fish and chip for lunch at Port Macquarie, NSW. We didn't stay longer at Port Macquarie as we been here before too. Port Macquarie is nice spot and very busy destination for holiday.
We stay one night at Manly. We having breky at near Manly beach too. It was awesome .. I think I like Manly, I though Manly is small town but Manly is crowd and many backpackers there. We didn't get much change to stay longer and discover more about Manly because we need come back to work on Monday so we make sure we need arrive in Adelaide on Saturday and the car has new home in Adelaide hehe.

Day 3

Mollymook - Ulladala

We start driving from Manly about 10am, we stop to say hello with friend at Cronulla, Cronulla also nice little town. Then we heaving to Mollymook to say hello to other friends there.
We have booked place at Narooma  Golf Club Resort. We arrived at Narooma around 6pm, but unfortunately we made wrong bokking for the date. So bugger .. we don't have place to stay at Narooma. Everywhere is packed out on peak season holiday in Australia. December - January is the most busy time holiday of the year in Australia. Unfortunately we didn't get opportunity to play golf again at Narooma, you should play golf at Narooma when you get here guys. Awesome Golf Course!
We were too brave to decide driving all night from Narooma to Melbourne, and it was 8 hours driving, we were arrive at Melbourne 3am. Thanks God, we arrive safe without Kangoroo distraction on road.


Day 4 

Sunburry - Woodend - Torqouy , Victoria

Sunburry is nice country side, but yea bit hot at the moment on that day. 
Woodend, we have the best breky at Woodend. We really recommend to stop at Woodend, nice small town & everyone knows everyone. I just stop to say hello with mate at Woodend and only in 5 minutes our mate introduce to nearly every single person there lol. We like the atmosphere and Woodend community. Again we didn't make it to play golf at Woodend as we arrived nearly 6pm, so we just went local pub instead at Woodend hahaha, it wasn't too bad at all though.

Torqouy is very nice area. I bet in Torqouy is expensive area hehe
But it is nice place to holiday even to stay maybe at Torqouy, nice Golf Club there 13th Golf Club
We had best seafood platter on New Year eve. This is the pictures, the prawn and fish were lovely & wonderful. We stay at Peppers, it was not bad hotel though .. Golf Course view.
