Fraser Range Station

Our first stay along the Nullarbor. This place had been shut for a while (5 years), but is now 'revamped' and ready for visitors again. Initial impression - well looked after property.
We stop at the office as signs instruct, and wait for a lady to come over and book us in. We pay $40 for a powered site ($25 unpowered) and we're given a park map to use to choose our own site. We are the 1st campers to arrive today. Roger selects Site 1, I'm happy with that. We settle in - air-conditioning going and awning out. Then we make toasted sandwiches for lunch - ham, relish, avocado, tomato and cheese. We go for a wander around the park area and check the facilities - all good. I'm happy there is a gas oven in the camp kitchen. I come back to camp and use the Thermomix to prepare a batch of Anzac biscuits - which I use the oven to cook. We relax for the rest of the afternoon, reading and catching up on 'housekeeping'. Roger washes the caravan floor, and I catch up on the budgeting books and spending app. Around 6pm we wander over to the camp dining area where there is a bar that's open at this time of the evening. Buy ourselves a drink and sit and chat with other campers. These other campers are here to have the dinner on offer ($35 Fish and salad with a caper sauce) - so once their meals arrive, we leave them to it and go back to our van to organise our tea. Roger cooks up steak on the BBQ and serves with boiled vegetables. We have yoghurt and banana for dessert. Tidy up, Roger goes has his shower, now relax until bedtime. The wind has sprung up this evening - glad Roger put the awning away earlier when we no longer required its shade.
28/01/25 Tuesday. We're up early and go for a walk together ❤️. We get back (at different times) and have breakfast together. Then I go have a shower while Roger gets us packed up ready to go. We leave around 9.45am.Read more
