• First bush camp

    July 29 in Australia ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

    Today is our first night on the Nullarbor. And more exciting, we are sitting around a camp fire.
    We stayed last night in Norseman free camp then headed out to the Nullarbor today. The roads are quite good and there have been a few road trains pass, but we have it down to a fine art. Pretty easy drive so far.
    Pulled into a servo today and there was a road train with a driver in a hazmat suit. Turns out he is taking bees over East. That's a new one. There were bees everywhere and the driver dove into the cab and slammed the door before any followed him in. Peter felt something on his neck and brushed it away, and got stung by a bee. We are such lovely, caring people that we were all rolled up. Anyway, he lived to tell the tale and we made sure to share the story with the truck driver on the 2way, who also enjoyed it.
    It's lovely here. Apart from the risk of bait for the dogs. Dinner cooked on a campfire, sunset in one direction, full moon in the other. And did I mention tgat Julie lit the fire with a flint. LEGEND!
    What could be better.
