    Day 5 The Nullabor

    April 18, 2019 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    To start off the day we packed up the caravan and headed out to a giant display of windmills, which included Australia's biggest windmill and smallest windmill. There was also a swing that pumped out water. This was the last town before we started on the Nullabor.
    While driving we detoured for some fun, to a huge area of sand dunes. The sand dunes were huge. We whipped out our boogie boards and, well sort of bolted up the giant dunes. (It was more like clambered up the dunes). They were so steep but is was still really fun apart from the steep climbing and getting covered with sand.
    The sand dunes were next to a place called Fowler's Bay where we had lunch and noticed some particularly strange lollies, "Camel Balls" and "Bulls Balls" so I thought "why not?" and bought a couple. (They tasted ok).
    Back on the road and Mum made us stop to get a picture of a sign with a Camel, Kangaroo and a Wombat over the words "next 92 km".
    The last spot we stopped at was a whale watching place at the head of the Great Australian Bight. We didn't see any whales or dolphins but the views were amazing. We ended up stopping about half way through the Nullabor at a small free camp where we had a nice little fire and relaxed outside,
    Tomorrow we arrive in Western Australia.
