Travel Note

Car

Alternatively drive, it's a fun adventure with a packed car and packed lunch, dinner and breakfast. We get distracted (hungry) and have not yet managed it in one day. It's 11 hours from our neck of the woods. If you are driving and want to share petrol / diesel / electron costs let us know and we can help coordinate with other guests. Even if that's for the last leg of the journey.
