you will only be 5 mins from the sundale bridge, after that it will take about 10 mins by car. the bridge does get busy at the weekend though;)
but if you nip down high st, then turn down to broadbeach. it might be quicker on a sunday:)

Maybe earlier. But the whole point of going up that way is to have a look around areas, houses etc. But we'll be there. No idea what hotel we will be staying at. Waiting on my mate coming back from Thailand as he works for flight centre and hopefully he can get us a deal on flights and accommodation.
