Milo, there are various sites available, like the ones mentioned in SmokyDK's response above, but you first need to know where you are planning to end up. Most of our travels, I have just used google to find out what is in the area etc, before actually planning on how I was going to get there.

Is that an old border collie i see?

Like Dunmowin I too use Google and Google Maps http://maps.google.com.au/ (note no www in the address).  Try entering (say) caravan parks, nowra, nsw in the search bar to find caravan parks.  I feel that you'll get more information from Google and the links Smokedk's post than you will in any special software.

Gee it does my head when someone posts to a very old thread & names of long gone (deleted?) forum members appear.

I well remember Milo & his plans (perhaps never realised) to get on the road & his devotion to his ageing Father.  More than a decade since he left this forum.

I see that although his blog spot seems to be abandoned he did post on Face book just a few years ago.

 Thanks for the heads up on that.

He came across to me as a gentle & kind sole looking for a way forward in life.  I always viewed him as a nice guy.

So sad, but it's part of the cycle of life that becomes more apparent to us as we age.

RIP Milo.

Methinks ericmiles is a bot and if it's the best that "software development team" can do then they won't be doing a work for me!
