It is glorious in every way. and probably not that expensive to travel from Aus. But logistically challenging. I have a full size canvas tent that you guys can sleep in and cooking facilities. All you need is clothes/sleeping gear, kiting gear, food and a method to get there. ..... .. . . . . We can probably sort load buggies and landboards too..... .. ...... jeffnyc and Grants 2 Quote
