The old Dubbo gaol is better than the zoo.
BTW, Its a long boring drive to Dubbo as well. Its not like driving up the coast where you are doing 110km's an hour, its more like 80 -100 zones with slow ass trucks slowing you down for ages at a time. I think it took us about 6 hours to get there from memory.
LOL...the Gaol is definitely not better than the Zoo. Try and have lunch in front of the spider monkeys which always perform for people.
Use to take me 4.5hrs to drive to Sydney so not sure what you were doing. Turn off after Lithgow towards Mudgee and avoid the Police and the traffic (skipping Orange/Bathurst).
I was thinking about heading back home (I now live in Newie) for the game but probably won't.
If anyone has any questions about Dubbo (yes its full of bogans) shoot away.
