Across the Nullarbor

---

Crossing the Nullarbor was amazing. The plains are as impressive as we’d imagined; spectacular for their sheer size and emptiness (apart from an occasional camel, emu, kangaroo or dingo). Hard to believe across one part we travelled at speed for nearly 5 hours without making a single turn. And the whistle-stop tours of Adelaide and Broken Hill were fun. We thought after all the nights we have spent in our tent we could easily handle 3 nights in “day-nighter” seats instead of getting a sleeper, but our bodies never really fit the aging Philadelphia designed Budd cars. Next time we won't be won't be so cheap! Still, for the three days of uninterrupted beauty and new friendships found, it was a wonderful journey.
