Homeward Bound

Our trip across the Nullarbor is still underway.  We've  stopped at many places for a look around and the scenery has been amazing.  We also took a detour to stay at an abandoned Station Homestead and Roadhouse which was just on the Old Eyre Highway.  The road in was pretty rough but worth it – at one stage I had to get out of the car and hold the trees back so we could get through!  
So far, we haven’t seen any whales but are still hopeful.  Only another 8 days before we get back to Adelaide!   


I've spent 24/7 with this bloke for the past 351 days and I still like him!!

Madura Roadhouse

Such a big country

The sand dunes are taking over this old Telegraph Station at Eucla


Back in South Australia!

The old roadhouse and petrol bowser at Koonalda
Many cars didn't make it across the Nullarbor so were taken 
to the roadhouse and there they stayed

We walked a bit of the Old Eyre Highway

Just amazing coastline

We felt like we were on the edge of the world

Don't get too close - those edges crumble!


We had BIG fires on our trip across the Nullarbor because it was so cold

First time we've seen so much green for a long time

We are at Penong now.  A lovely little town where 
my friend Ros spent some of her childhood

We had a good snitty here at the Penong Hotel

The sun has been shining since we arrived in 
Penong so took the opportunity to get on our bikes
