Travel day 427km.
Sunshine again, we're loving it! Lit the pot belly in the old shearer's quarter's this morning (which now is a fully equipped camp kitchen) and had our pancakes in luxury. At 10.30am we were packed and ready to go. Sad to leave Fraser Range Station but there was more to see ahead.
We were back on the Nullarbor before we knew it and I was really hoping we'd see a camel or some emu's today. 11.20am arrived at Balladonia where a piece of 'Skylab' was displayed on service station's roof.
At 11.40pm we reached the straightest stretch of road in Australia - 'The 90mile Straight'.
We stopped at Caiguna for fuel and food. Adjusted clocks, forward 45mins. Arrived at Madura Pass 4.45pm, a roadhouse which is open 24hrs and has camping/caravan facilities as well as motel accommodation. It was pretty basic and we were glad it was just an overnight stay.
No sightings of camel's or emu's much to my dismay.
