Day 6 Across the Nullabor

When I first heard about the Nullabor I imagined it being barren desert and boring. It was a long, mostly straight road but it had lots of shrubs and an abundance of road kill to keep us busy counting. Between Jess, Ryley and myself we counted over 160 dead kangaroos.
In total today we drove for about 8 hours, stopping at roadhouses and viewing areas for a break. We stopped at a special Roadhouse on the border between South and Western Australia with a sign showing different cities from around the world and the distance between them. There was also a giant kangaroo holding a jar of Vegemite that was pretty cool.
A few Quarantine Officers went through all our stuff, but thankfully they didn't touch my special peanut butter, unfortunately the carrots also got through.
We are now in Western Australia at a free camp near a town called Balladonia where we played guitar by the fire outside, it was a good day.Read more
