Caiguna Blowhole
16 lutego, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C
After a tiresome 5 minutes on the straightest road, we stopped at the Caiguna Blowhole. This was eloquently described by Alex as "just a hole in the dirt" when we were trying to find it. There was no Czytaj więcej
90 Mile Straight
16 lutego, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C
The start of Australia's longest straight road. I got a little distracted because the Outback Jazz Man from Tambor QLD was there, so I got chatting to him instead of taking pictures.
Wedgetail Inn "Hotel"
15 lutego, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 35 °C
Cocklebiddy, right on Nuytsland Nature Reserve... Sorry, that made me laugh, but it was a very long drive.
This was the roadhouse that we were most worried about staying at, actually; it had terrible Czytaj więcej
Eucla
15 lutego, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C
The first stop was just across the border at Eucla. This was meant to be a visit to see the old Telegraph station and Jetty, but it was also where I learned that March flies love my legs. So while I Czytaj więcej
Border Village
15 lutego, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C
Had to get a picture of True Blue Rooey, right? Probably didn't have to get pulled over by the WA Police with a friendly welcome to the state with a speeding fine, though.

Head of the Bight

It would have been pretty amazing to be here with the Southern Right Whales going past with their calves... However, I still got a little sentimental looking at the huge cliffs at the start of the Czytaj więcej
Nullabor Plain
15 lutego, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C
Finally made it to the beginning of the plain. Leading up to this, I said to Alex that there were a lot of trees for a place that is famous for not having trees... Then they all just disappeared.
Point Sinclair

We went down to find a Pink Lake and Stingrays at the Jetty... But left finding neither.
Penong Windmill Museum

14 lutego, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C
That was a long day of driving, 1000 km, and guess what? Another 4 AM start tomorrow for another 8 hours of driving. So we only had the energy for a little sightseeing in Port Augusta, visiting the Czytaj więcej

Outback Discovery Centre

Australian Arid Land Botanic Gardens
14 lutego, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C
We go to a lot of botanic gardens, but I liked this one from the first time we went there. It is a garden that really highlights the plants that live in arid zones and need next to no water. Saying Czytaj więcej

Kata Tjuta
13 lutego, Australia ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C
It was still cold and windy, which might have seemed appropriate for the Valley of the Winds walk. But we also had an 8-hour drive ahead of us. So instead, we went to look at and stand on the Czytaj więcej
Wintjiri Wiru Sunset Dinner
12 lutego, Australia ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
Well, this did not exactly go to plan. It was a dinner followed by a drone and laser show. It started with some canapes while we watched and waited for the sun to set. But that's unfortunately where Czytaj więcej

Caves
12 lutego, Australia ⋅ 🌬 22 °C
Coming back to the main area again where we were at during the waterfalls last night. And as expected,
