I start on June 7, 1996

Here is my first short stop: 5 hours layover - I can't wait!!!

June 8 until June 12

June 12 until June 16

June 16 until June 19

June 19 until June 24

In Cairns my "Tour de Force" begins. With a rented car I will drive down the East Coast. I have until July 20 to go through the following cities:

Brisbane

Sydney

Melbourne

Adelaide

Nothing is set in stone yet. This might well become the adventurous part of my trip. Stay tuned for the updates from there.

While I am in Melbourne I also want to visit Tasmania for a couple of days.

From Melbourne I want to fly to New Zealand and spend several days there.

My actual itinerary looked like that:

Cairns

to Airlie Beach (Whitsunday Islands)

to Hervey Bay (gateway to Fraser Island)

to Brisbane

to the Goldcoast

to Byron Bay (including Nimbim - watch out for this update!)

to Sydney

This is the next definite stop: July 20 until July 25

In LA I take another rented car and drive up Highway No. 1 to San Francisco. On August 1 I will complete my journey and fly back to London and on to Vienna.
