ANNIE, CINDERELLA, ELF & More Set for MACY'S THANKSGIVING DAY PARADE on NBC
America's favorite holiday tradition, the 86th Annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade®, returns to dazzle and enchant millions nationwide on Thursday, November 22 from 9 a.m.to 12 noon on NBC in all time zones. "The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade" will take to the streets of New York City with a cornucopia of whimsical treats for the whole family. With more than 3.5 million spectators watching the revelry live -- and more than 50 million viewers tuned in to the magic nationwide -- the 86th edition of the world-famous spectacle promises to be the nation's largest Thanksgiving Day celebration.
The fun will begin with performances from Broadway's best musicals, including "Annie," "Bring It On," Rodgers + Hammerstein's "Cinderella," "Elf" and "Nice Work If You Can Get It." In addition, the world-famous Radio City Rockettes® will join the presentation to help kick-off the holidays.
The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade has been the nation's star attraction for decades, and this year, the "Today" show's Matt Lauer, Savannah Guthrie and Al Roker will host and treat viewers to Thanksgiving's best entertainment special. Stars joining the festivities this year include Kareem Abdul-Jabbar; Trace Adkins; Big Apple Circus; Chica and the gang from Sprout; Colbie Caillat; Rachel Crow; Thirza Defoe; Jimmy Fallon & The Roots; Flo Rida; Whoopi Goldberg; Chris Isaak; Carly Rae Jepsen; Karmin; Kidz Bop; Christian Laettner; Sandra Lee; Mannheim Steamroller; Jennette McCurdy; Don McLean; Megan & Liz; Olivia Culpo, Miss USA 2012; the Muppets and cast of Sesame Street; Neon Trees; Power Rangers Megaforce; Cody Simpson; the U.S. Olympic gold medalists -- Gabby Douglas, McKayla Maroney, Aly Raisman, Kyla Ross and Jordyn Wieber; The Wanted; and Food Network's Iron Chef Geoffrey Zakarian.
"Since the first broadcast in 1948, the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade has become a tradition for families across America," said Doug Vaughan, Senior Vice President, Special Programs and Late Night, NBC Entertainment. "This year we are thrilled to once again celebrate with some of the nation's best performers as we kick off the holiday season."
Featuring signature elements, the Macy's Parade has marked the start of the holiday season, since its inception in 1924. This year, the lineup of wonder unfolds with 16 giant character balloons; 40 novelty/ornament balloons, balloonicles, balloonheads and trycaloons; 28 floats; 1,600 cheerleaders and dancers; 900 clowns; 11 marching bands; a host of celebrity performers and the one-and-only Santa Claus.
"The 86th Annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade will again make history as it debuts three impressive giant balloons, six over-the-top floats, an amazing array of talent and the most remarkable high school and college marching bands in the nation," said Amy Kule, executive producer of Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. She added, "This incredible cavalcade will make its way down 6th Avenue, a path that marks only the seventh time the parade has changed its route. And, as it has during turbulent times in our history, we hope the Macy's Parade serves as a beacon of hope for all who tune in and gather with friends and family to give thanks this season, as they continue to heal from the devastating aftermath of super-storm Sandy. During its 86th year, the parade continues to create new memories and magical moments for more than three million live spectators and over 50 million who tune in across the country."
The parade's signature giant character balloons are one of the procession's most famous elements, each year drawing millions of cheers from spectators young and old. Joining the line-up this year is a returning favorite with a brand new design and two never-before-seen characters set to take flight this Thanksgiving. On deck for a Turkey Day lift this year is Santa's favorite scout elf from the new beloved children's Christmas tradition, The Elf on the Shelf®, the lovable Hello Kitty© aboard her fabulous airplane, and the smurferrific Papa Smurf.
Also making its parade debut as the latest member of the parade's Blue Sky Gallery series is Companion by KAWS. The series, which debuted in 2005, invites world-renowned artists to create high-flying works of art for the procession. Said to be the artist's alter-ego, Companion is a shy character who prefers to cover his eyes from the millions of spectators set to gaze at him as he flies down the route. In celebration of this unique partnership, Brian Donnelly, better known by the moniker KAWS, also created the promotional artwork for this year's parade, which features his unique style and sensibility. Previous works to have joined this elite group include balloon designs by Tom Otterness, Jeff Koons, Keith Haring, Takashi Murakami and Tim Burton.
Rounding out the ballooning lineup are returning favorites including Buzz Lightyear, Charlie Brown, Diary of A Wimpy Kid, Julius, Kermit the Frog, Kung Fu Panda™, Pikachu, Pillsbury Doughboy®, Ronald McDonald®, Sailor Mickey, Sonic the Hedgehog™, Spider-Man® and SpongeBob SquarePants.
Setting the stage for wondrous adventures are the parade's signature floats. Taking spectators through magical experiences, the floats set the scene for amazing performances. Joining the lineup this year are six new landscapes, including the imaginative Daytime, Play Time, Night Time Too…; the wonderland of Goldfish® on Parade; the beats lifestyle magic of Music Is Our Life; the hoops appreciation on board the 75 Years of March Madness®; the home based goodies of Stirrin' Up Sweet Sensations; and the ninja precision of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
The returning float roster includes 1-2-3 Sesame Street, Big Apple, Bridge To The Future, Dora's Christmas Carol Adventure, Elves Raise The Roof, Gift of Freedom, Home Baked Goodness, International Cele-bear-ation Clock Tower, Jolly Polly Pirate Ship, Marion-Carole Showboat, Mouth Rushmore's American Pride, On The Roll Again, Pep Rally, Santa's Sleigh, The Smurfs, Snoopy's Doghouse, Tom Turkey, True Spirit of Thanksgiving, Uncle Sam's Top Hat, Winter Wonderland In Central Park, Woodland Family Gathering and Zhu-niverse.
Providing the beat and the razzle-dazzle are the nation's and the world's best marching bands and performance groups. Together, they add the pomp and circumstance to the holiday revelry, delighting spectators along the route and providing television viewers with holiday showstoppers. Eleven marching bands will take up the call of the baton and march into history as the 86th Macy's Parade's musical heart. Joining the Thanksgiving Day revelry are Banda Musical Delfines (Veracruz, Mexico); Father Ryan High School (Nashville, TN); Kenton Ridge High School (Springfield, OH); Macy's Great American Marching Band (United States); Niceville High School (Niceville, FL); North Carolina A&T State University (Greensboro, NC); Oak Ridge High School (Conroe, TX); Saratoga High School (Saratoga, CA); United States Air Force Band & Honor Guard (Washington, DC); University of Louisiana Lafayette (Lafayette, LA); and the Wyoming All-State Marching Band (Wyoming). The purveyors of sometimes wacky but always fun entertainment include the nation's best performance groups.

October 24, 2011
ACE, in conjunction with a coalition of higher education associations, is stepping up efforts to prevent Congress from making further cuts to the Department of Education's (ED) international and foreign language programs.
Funding for Title VI International Education programs was cut $50 million (or 40 percent) in the FY 2011 spending bill. Now, as Congress works on FY 2012 spending bills for the fiscal year that started on Oct. 1, 2011, it is possible that further reductions are in the offing.
While the Senate proposes to fund these programs evenly, albeit at the reduced funding level approved last year, the House draft makes an additional $9 million cut, completely eliminating the Fulbright-Hays programs as well as the Institute for International Public Policy. The associations are working to persuade Congress to maintain these programs at the FY 2011 level of $75.7 million provided in the Senate bill.
One part of this effort is a letter sent last week to House and Senate Appropriations Committee leadership by a coalition of education groups, including ACE. The letter asks that funding be maintained for ED's international and foreign language programs.
"The nation continues to face a dangerously short supply of Americans with in-depth knowledge of world regions and international markets, and fluency in foreign languages and their cultures," the groups wrote. "These skills help to ensure our security and global economic competitiveness, including job creation and sustainable recovery from the economic crisis. The FY 2011 funding reductions already have weakened the educational opportunities needed to address these shortfalls, as well as to prepare our students for the 21st century global workplace."

How To Keep Your Money At The Poker Table
So, youíre cleaning up at the $1-$3 no-limit Holdíem cash game on a Saturday night at Bellagio or plowing through the $2-$5 pot-limit Omaha game at Aria. When should you pick up and leave?
There are few feelings worse in poker than getting up by a large amount in a cash game and losing it all back; or, even worse, losing it back and then losing your entire buy-in. (You've got to save some for that late night steak dinner, right?) The adage ďquit while youíre aheadĒ certainly comes to mind in these situations. So whatís a poker player to do to prevent this?

The expo floor at G2E (the Global Gaming Expo) is where the focus is for casino visitors because of all of the shiny new toys. What you may not know is that G2E is much more. In addition to the expo, there are seminars and speakers. One of the goals is that the casino, hotel, food and beverage businesses can educate each other on the state of their business. Much of the discussion†is inside business speak, but there are a some nuggets of information the average casino visitor will find interesting.
Fantasy Sports
MGM Resorts Chairman and CEO Jim Murren stated that his company is ďconsidering investing in fantasy sports leagues.Ē Murren went on to say that MGM Resorts already sponsors fantasy sports events and has been incorporating elements into slot machines.

You Can't Use Free Play Anywhere You Want
If youíve been visiting casinos for a while, the concept of free play (Freeplay, as one word, is the trademark of a specific casino company) isnít anything new. However, if youíre new to casino promotions or just†noticed free play as an offer from MyVEGAS, you might not realize that itís not quite as simple as receiving money.
Free play is a reward of ďfree moneyĒ that casinos offer players. It can be spent on video poker and slot machines. Free play isnít real bills, but credits can be turned into straight cash homey as you win.

ORILLIA – Here in the newspaper business, we reporters are occasionally called upon to write at length about subjects that might otherwise earn only a minor mention somewhere in the back of the paper.
This usually occurs late in the day when an editor discovers an unusually large hole that needs filling, possibly with a 2,000-word feature about asparagus.
In other instances, editors will fill that hole with a weather-related story, such as the first big snowfall of the year.
This story might even make the front page if the snowfall occurred in spring and killed the first asparagus crop. Astute readers, no doubt, view these sorts of stories as filler or "fluff."
To those people, I can only say: Did you not read my recent groundbreaking piece on turning your clocks back an hour?
Perhaps "groundbreaking" is overstating the depth of the above-mentioned "article," which included many fascinating tidbits such as, "daylight saving time ends this weekend" and "don't' forget to turn your clocks back one hour."
Actually, those were all of the tidbits I could muster in the 75 seconds I initially dedicated to the topic
I dressed it up, of course.
"Look forward to an extra hour of sleep this weekend," I enthused, "as daylight saving time ends early Sunday morning."
Short, concise and snappy, I thought as I forwarded that little gem to my editor.
Minutes later, the editor, who is highly astute and easily saw through my feeble attempt, swivelled in his chair: "It's too short. It needs to be longer."
He then motioned to his computer screen where there appeared a gaping white space beneath the measly sentences I'd contributed on this time-sensitive subject.
"Huh?" I replied, feigning ignorance.
"This needs to be longer. There must be something else we can tell readers about the time change."
I set to work, immediately surfing the Internet for information about A) daylight saving time B) clocks and C) the Swedish Women's Pillow Fighting Championships.
(The last search topic provided absolutely no useful information for my story, but left me infinitely happier.)
After several agonizing minutes of thinking – this is harder than it looks – I resubmitted the piece with a few details added, all the while cackling to myself like a villain pondering an evil scheme.
Here is what the editor read as he opened the updated story:
"Look forward to an extra hour of sleep this weekend, as daylight saving time ends early Sunday morning. Set your clocks back an hour and wait for the magic to happen. This is a great opportunity to skip church and watch cartoons, or just stay in bed and ponder the meaning of the universe, which scientists say is rapidly expanding. And remember, it's daylight 'saving' time, not 'savings.' Duh."
Seated at my desk and rubbing my palms together conspiratorially, I continued to snicker while imagining the editor reading the last couple of sentences and wondering if I'd lost my marbles.
Let me just state for the record that he is a kindly and generous editor who did not even swivel in his chair and throw a stapler in my direction.
To my credit, I did include a third version of the story with these helpful details: "Fire officials recommend changing the batteries in your household smoke alarms when resetting your clocks."
I got that from the Swedish Women's Pillow Fighting League.

Improvements will not come through new technology, but from evaluating and improving business processes, DOD official says
Business systems run by the Defense Department should work just as well and as fast as what the public is used to at their local store, according to Elizabeth McGrath, assistant deputy chief management officer and performance improvement officer at the DOD.
Despite the massive size and complexity of DOD, leaders there are committed to improving the organization's business processes, such as managing payroll, McGrath said today at an AFCEA Northern Virginia chapter event.
The improvements will not come through acquiring new technology, but rather from evaluating and improving business processes, she added.
"We all swipe our credit cards, right?" McGrath said. "Not only that, but you go to the line with no cashiers; the line that is self-service. Our generation is getting to like self-serve and the generation behind us will demand it."
The same expectations consumers have is possible to achieve within the government, she said. For example, security clearances should not take longer than a year to complete, McGrath said. One of the major factors that makes the process slow today is it involves multiple agencies, she said.
"But in order for it to work efficiently and effectively, all of us have to come together," McGrath said. "And we have to look at what our strategy is. We have to look at the process by which we execute this, and the policies in place that enable or guide us in this endeavor."
Taking that holistic view often doesn't happen because it is difficult, she said. For example, until recently, the federal investigative standards for security clearances had not been revised since the days of J. Edgar Hoover, she said. The lack of revisions was not because the policies were so good, she said. Change didn't happen because it required people to challenge the status quo and figure out how to fix it.
One mistake DOD officials must be careful to avoid is trying to fix problems by purchasing technology, McGrath said.
We have lots of experience buying technology and the results are mixed," she said. "To be completely honest the results aren't very positive, especially with large scale implementations of information technology. If you don't do this business process reengineering, if you don't challenge the policies in place, it doesn't matter what you buy."

With the advent of cloud computing, this generation has access to unlimited users, bandwidth, storage and CPU, said Josh Coates, founder of Mozy and Instructure Inc., in a speech at the Roots Tech Family History and Technology Conference at the Salt Palace Convention Center on Friday.
Coates said this poses a question for this era of, "What are we going to do with it?" No other generation has ever had this question presented to it because these things weren't available to them.
"Let me tell you why cloud computing is new and useful," Coates said. "It's this: the illusion of infinite resources; no up-front commitment; and pay-as-you-go, on-demand computing power."
"You've never been able to do that before in the history of computing," Coates continued. "It enables anybody that has the know-how and the tenacity to build an entire infrastructure, just by themselves."
Many of the things that enable cloud computing weren't even around until recently, Coates said. Even just 10 years ago, the cost of using bandwidth was thousands of dollars. Now, the cost of using bandwidth has gone down to about a dollar.
Coates also said storage has become much more available recently. "You can get more storage instantly with the cloud than you would really know what to do with."
When the cloud first came out, it was very confusing, Coates said. He used an analogy of factories to explain how the cloud works: Years ago, factories had to use generators for power, but they were always breaking and it was a bad system. People at the factories couldn't always focus on their work because they were constantly fixing generators, Coates said. Then utility companies came along and made things better, and that's what the cloud is like. It makes things better.
Not everyone agrees, however. Some very intelligent people on completely different ends of the spectrum don't like cloud, Coates said.
Coates also gave a bit of a history lesson in his speech as he referred to the different types of memory throughout the years. He said there were 6-inch disks of data that can be traced all the way back to 1700 B.C. Those disks, made of clay tablets, could hold up to 166 bytes of data. By 1981, Morse code was an instant global messaging system.
But Coates said social networks, such as the ones currently used, didn't come onto the scene until 2002. A lot of good things can come from social networking, Coates said, and cited Wikipedia as one of those things.
In the future, someone will come up a new Facebook, Coates said. He doesn't know when, but he said it's inevitable.

Centerville, UT
I really appreciate the efforts to save and protect these wonderful historic sites. But can I just ask one question? How do we know they wanted "to be near the sacred twin rock pinnacles." "They inhabited the region for more than 1,000 years but had left by 1300. Their disappearance is still a mystery." If we do not understand why they disappeared, then how do we know their religious beliefs? I think sometimes we superimpose our own emotions and feelings onto societies we have no clear understanding of. Could it be they just wanted to farm the land there?

Faridabad: Industrialist's son, 36 others booked for violence
By PTI - FARIDABAD
Published: 31st July 2013 04:58 PM
Last Updated: 31st July 2013 04:58 PM
Police today registered a case against the son of a noted industrialist and 36 others for allegedly attacking bank officials, who had come to seal their factory unit for defaulting on a loan.
The industrialist had failed to repay a loan of Rs 120 crore with the public-sector bank, following which the bank had requested Deputy Commissioner Balraj Singh Moore to allow them to carry out sealing of their factory unit, they said.
With Moore's approval the bank officials last night sealed the factory in Sector 24, belonging to the industrialist. But the factory workers broke into the unit and allegedly attacked bank officials, police said.
The industrialist's son allegedly got into a scuffle with the officials, broke the sealed locks and trespassed into the factory. He along with 36 other factory workers also indulged in stone pelting, they said.
The police has registered a case on a complaint filed by the public sector lender's chief under various sections of the IPC.

Traveling at night?
Started by bluecupcakes , Nov 26 2012 11:00 PM

Posted 26 November 2012 - 11:00 PM
Hi all,
We are going away for christmas and it is a 12 hour car trip to get where we are going. I have 3 children aged 5,4 and 2. DP and I will be sharing the driving. I am considering doing it overnight as in leaving at the kids bedtime hoping that they will just sleep the night and arriving at out destination in the morning.
Just wondering if anyone has done this before and how it went? Did the kids sleep the trip? We have done this trip before but this will be the first time with all 3 of the kids.
Thanks in advance
Posted 26 November 2012 - 11:16 PM
I did a lot of car trips as a kid, and have done a few big ones with a child slightly younger (16mo at the time) than your youngest, and I've done a blue million long trips on my own. If it were just adults, I'd say drive through. But with kids I strongly recommend planning an overnight stop. We always drove until dinner time and had dinner near a motel/hotel where we stayed for the night, then started up again after breakfast and arrived at the destination mid-afternoon.
Even if they do sleep the overnight portion, they will probably not feel so fantastic when they wake after being stationary so long in a weird position. Plus, you two will be tired, too, as I don't know too many folks who manage to sleep solidly during car trips. Is there a motel or caravan park with cabins or something halfway?
I'm sure someone else will say it works fine but I wouldn't personally do it!
Posted 27 November 2012 - 05:53 AM
I do a lot of travelling and have just done Vic to QLD and back again. I tend to stop at a motel and get an early night, then get up about 2-3am, put the baby in the car still asleep in his pjs, and start driving. I like it because you get a fair bit of driving done before the traffic starts. I usually stop again by mid afternoon, and sometimes will have a nap at the motel. Twelve hours I would probably drive 2am-2pm, especially if I had a co-driver.
Posted 27 November 2012 - 07:58 AM
we have a caravan so drive to every holiday we have haad, be it 3 hours away or more.
We have done Gold Coast to Sydney in 12 hours with the caravan and 3 kids, we left at 10am and stopped for dinner for an hour(had packed a lunch)
sometimes it's tough but we have recently got portable dvd players for the kids and I wonder why we didn't do this earlier.
When we leave for holidays it is usually 3am wake up, the kids sleep in their clothes (comfy car clothes) they get in the car with their pillows and blankets and usually go straight back to sleep. then we will stop for breakky when the whinging gets too much LOL!
I don't take turns in driving as we tow the van and I am not confident doing that, so the driving is left up to DH which he is fine with.
I think driving through the night might be a bit much for the driviers, depends on how the passenger sleeps and if the kids are awake??
good luck
Posted 27 November 2012 - 08:12 AM
We will be doing the drive from Gold Coast to Sydney with a 5 and 2 year old. Have done this plenty of times in the past.
We do quite a lot of stops as we are in no hurry !
We stay at Port Macquarie overnight and continue the rest of the journey the following day. Seems to work for us, if the kinders are tired they will sleep in the car which they usually do.
I do not like driving at night ! I prefer to drive during the day.
I would consider maybe leaving super eary in the morning, at least you and your husband would at least have had proper rest, rather than sleep tagging in the car.
Have a safe journey

We used to pack up the car, go to bed early and then get up really early to leave. It was a more pleasant drive if we missed the midday sun (not very good car aircon then!), so sometimes we'd stop somewhere shady for a couple of hours at the hottest part of the day.
We'd leave at 3 am and arrive at 4pm or so. As kids our parents would just move us from our bed to the car in our pjs and we'd doze off until the sun came up.
Depends on where you are driving though - its tiring driving at night, and if there are lots of kangaroos etc it can be a bit stressful!

We did it with a 3, 2 & 1yo.
We left home at 9pm, and arrived in QLD at 8am the next morning.
We only stopped to swap drivers, the kids slept the majority of the way, though at one stage they were up watching a dvd in the early hours, but crashed out again.
Admit we were shattered, mum (who were visiting) took over the kids and we passed out until that afternoon.
On the way home we stayed a night halfway. It was a lot more relaxing.

All I ever imagine is that my children wouldn't sleep once they were woken up to get in the car. And I imagine all 4 of us being overtired to begin with.
So I wouldn't do it.

This year, we drove Syd - Gold Coast. We also drive Syd-Melb once a year. Rather than go overnight, we get up very early and go. For Syd-Gold Coast, we left at 4. The kids are excited about going in the dark and are awake for the first 1-2 hours, then fall asleep for a few hours so you only need to make your first stop 5 or so hours into the trip. We stopped for breakfast and continued on. We prefer not to do an overnight stop, just a waste of everyone's time. Kids have slept in the car so won't go to sleep at night. Disaster all round.
Last time, we stopped at the butterfly farm for a few hours. Made the day seem like a tourist day, rather than just a travel day.

As a child we used to go on 10 hour+ holidays a bit. We would either get up really early or leave in the middle of the day and stay somewhere. My dad did all the driving.
My DH, his friend and I drove from Melb to sunshine coast. We left at about 9 or 10 pm chirssy day and got there in the afternoon boxing day. (Everyone else had either taken a few days to get there or flown) My DH and his friend just drove the whole way, one would drive and the other would sleep and then they would switch. We had a TV/DVD player wired in the car and also a portable DVD player for me (who got the front seat) I didn't sleep too much as I was worried about all passangers being asleep at the sametime. We were also towing a boat so it is heavy driving (hence why I could not drive as I was on P's) I don't think I would be prepared to drive through the night with kids unless they were all in comfy rear facing seats, I personally hate sleeping in the car myself.

I agree with Ferdinand. Driving at night is dangerous, your body is used to sleeping. All the "stop revive survive" stuff says stick to usual awake times. Sure get up a bit earlier for a good start, but no way would I risk trying to stay alert at 3am while driving a car full of my loved ones!

My dad always said "a hour before lunch is worth two afterwards" - meaning that the more km done whilst you are fresh in the morning is best.
I wouldn't recommend driving through the night - so easy to doze off. I would also suggest regular short breaks especially if you are not sharing the driving.
Posted 27 November 2012 - 10:50 AM
It depends where yo uare driving to.
As kids my parents used to do a lot of the Brisbane-Rockhampton drive in the early hours of the morning (leaving at 4am, but if we were heading out west, then we would time it so that we would be in toowoomba for Dawn - just so we can do the country roads in the daylight - there are too many roos at night.
Posted 27 November 2012 - 11:02 AM
It all depends on how you are feeling, have you driven long distances before and have you driven long distances at night before.
We did Canberra to Brisbane and Brisbane to Canberra in 2011 during the night and it really messed with us. It was hard to do and we had to change drives every hour and a half which wasn't really great for the passenger to get a rest.
We have just did the Adelaide to Canberra trip (13 Hours) during the day with an almost 3 year old, and I must say it was so much better than doing the trip through the night. We left about 4am and arrived about 5.30pm.
I would recommend doing the trip during the day, as you will feel more refreshed and would be safer since your not driving tired.

We always do this when we drive to the Gold Coast from Sydney in May each year. We leave our house at about 1am after a few hours sleep, take it in turns driving, and usually arrive by about 10 or 11. We don't really do any stops, just somewhere for breakfast and toilet for the kids at about 7am, and then keep on going. Its great, they sleep most of the way and you don't hit a lot of traffic. Plus you don't feel like you waste an entire day. When one of us drives, the other sleeps in the car.
Its usually only about 4 hours until the sun is up and then the rest is easy.

For me it depends as well on where going etc. DP is a truck driver so is used to driving at night, however I do still think there is more of a tendancy to drift off, especially as everyone else is asleep and it is usually fairly quiet.
Also depending on area, wildlife are out, and if where we are, you could hit a cow, also quite a few trucks drive at night as well.
We tend to do the up at 4 am thing as well if we need to be somewhere with more time or have a long drive.

And as Jembo said, depends where you are driving the wildlife can be a huge risk as well.

I also agree with this. We do early starts, but in saying that I'm normally up at 4am for work anyway and Dh by 5am - so starting at 4am is like normal day for us.
When I was a child we drove from Coffs to Melbourne couple times a year and Coffs to Bowen (just past Airlie Beach QLD) and I know a couple time we tried the drive overnight and it just wasn't worth it as everyone was tried as you don't sleep well sitting up, it would get dangerous anyway and we end up pulling over at 2-3am and then stuck sleeping in a car instead of a motel. So we did it in 2 trips, start at 4-5am finish by 3pm then start again the next day.

I second leaving early. We would regularly do 800km drive with two very young children, on outback highways. It was safest for us to leave early, about 5am,as we had 2hrs of dirt road to drive, and to avoid roo's we would do that before sunrise. We would then stop for breakfast, change nappies (yep they were that young) and get in day clothes. Then stop for an early lunch, and then get to our destination early afternoon.
Driving overnight will mean that you will both be feeling very average once you arrive, not a good way to start a holiday.

I wouldn't drive through the night unless you're a shift worker and used to staying up through the night. Tiredness is likely to take over otherwise.
I would drive 6am-6pm instead.
I do the drive Syd-Melb by myself (with DS) semi-regularly. It's an easy drive during the day, but as soon as it starts to get dark I feel super sleepy. I leave at 6am and get there about 4pm without any dramas.
We do Melb to Sydney and back four times a year. We leave 7-8am and arrive 6-7 pm. Have three kids. Now 3,5,7 but have been doing this drive since the middle one was 6 m old
Posted 27 November 2012 - 09:09 PM
Not worth it, it's not safe to drive at night when you are normally asleep. Besides, if you arrive completely shattered after driving all night, you end up wasting your first day of your holiday sleeping anyway. I haven't been able to sleep in the car since I was a kid. I'm not convinced my kids would sleep in the car either.
We generally just get up at 5-6am and do most of the driving early in the day when we're fresh. On a drive to Qld we stayed overnight at Coffs Harbour.

My aunt and uncle did this from Shepparton to Newcastle every Christmas starting when their three kids were under five. The cousins slept almost all the way and were awake once they arrived. Aunt & Uncle then slept while rest of the family looked after the kids.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 02:28 PM
Thanks all for the replies it has definitely given me more to think about. The majority of our travel is on the Hume Hwy but there is about 2 hours through bush to get on to the highway and the same to get off the highway so the wildlife thing does bother me.
I was all set to do the drive on the Sunday before Christmas just leave early and arrive in the afternoon / evening. Now MIL has decided she has her heart set on taking the kids to the carols that evening so is putting the pressure on us to come earlier.
I really didn't want to travel on the Saturday as DP only finishes work on Friday and I wanted a day at home for him to relax and me to get organized!
