Head to Canberra via the Snowy Mountains Highway from Tathra (on the NSW 
coast).  Great road.  Turn off to Canberra at Cooma.
Canberra is actually quite nice, and it takes a few days to see all there. 
The Academy of Science is notable, visit it.
Driving in Sydney is er grim.  I grew up there.  Pick your lane well ahead 
of any turn.
Watch out for the crocodiles, taipans, sea snakes, box jellies, sunstroke, 
dengue fever, malaria, Ross River fever, cane toads, etc in Queensland.
