Made the long drive from the SA border down to Coober Pedy. Narrowly avoided lots of frilled necked lizards which were sunning on the roadside.

Driving into Coober Pedy was interesting as it is surrounded by opal mines with large colored sand pyramids all over the paddocks and the horizon. 90% of the worlds opals come from this region!

The caravan park is rough which we find amusing.
From the girl with the black eye in reception, right down to the drunken yobbos at night (and the stuff they stole at 2am from some of the campers). The pool and games room is built inside two large steel tanks, maybe to keep the heat out???

Highlight today: freezing cold swim after a long, dusty drive.
