2018: Sydney - Lake Mungo - Arkaroola - Bangalow

Originally planned as a trip with my camper-trailer, but this was winter, and I calculated that leaving
the trailer at home and booking warm accommodation in advance would cost only a little more and
involve less stress. We must be getting old. Anybody want to buy a camper-trailer?
