We made it!



Yay, we made it across the Nullabour. The first day was very hot and, as our cars aircon wasn't working it was a little trying, but we found a great campspot for the night and some nice people to chat with.
There is a constant stream of trucks going both ways loaded with goods of all types. One truckie we talked to carries $3m worth of magazines to Perth every weekend, that is amazing (or crazy!).

The second night we found a spot at Bunda Cliffs (that's where we took that photo as the sund was peaking through the clouds!) which is right on the Great Australian Bight, it was a scenic spot and offered awesome views which was really great. The kids have been great travellers, we listen to story CD's, read books (famous five and secret seven at the moment) and have watched some DVD's to pass the time (thanks heaps Beaumaris!) We are at Ceduna for the night and it is cool and very seasidey.

  1. hey, well done Birchs! So glad to hear that you made it safe and sound across the Nullarbor - especially without air conditioning! If you've survived that, surely the rest of the trip will be a breeze!!!
    Love you guys and miss you already.
