Yeah right Blair, you be careful driving that far in one sitting.
I drove up in April as you are aware and it took me 2.5 days to get to Cairns.
I stayed first night in Rockhampton after 8 hours drive from here.
Townsville the second night before a late morning start to Cairns.
Arrived Cairns about midday. Total about 20 hours driving.
Driving to Cairns from Brissy is equivalent to driving from Brissy to Melbourne. Damned is I'd do it in a day.
Keep in mind that at this time of the year the roads are chokers with Sydneyites and Victorians, all pulling their fiberglass/alum sleeping quarters.
If they could drive it wouldn't be so bad but sheeezzz....it sure is a pain to get stuck behind them.
