Of course any of this is optional - you can do as much or as little as you please , last time we had people peel off and visit mates or look at stuff not on our itinerary , or only do a portion of the trip and bail out early or start late.

Bottler mate. I can start booking accomodation.

OK - accommodation for the Wednesday and Thursday nights
We scored a corporate rate with Albany motels and apartments - $172 per night need to call for the rate to apply and mention FB/EK Holden nationals tour 08 9842 7670. They are busy already and rooms are limited.

Sweet mate. Elle and I all booked. Adds up dunnit? Accomodation bill is up to $1900 for 11 nights including the trip over. We did go the fancy room at Bunbury. Well worth it for the trip. Now to try and pin down the cook on the flights.
