After a restless night sleep, William kept us both wake with his tossing and turning. We both ended up being kicked in the face a few times. He also woke up about 3am and had some nurofen for his sore bottom. Poor little buggar. We decided we would give him his Easter Egg at lunch to save a big mess in the car; we were packed up quite quickly and were on the road by 8.30am. Kelley drove the first 2 hours to Kimba, then Neil took over and drove to Port Augusta. ...

We were up early this morning and it was quite cold. We were on our way by 8.10am. Neil was driving first and in a space of about 3-4 kms there were 4 dead wombats on the road. We are also disappointed to report that on both our travels across the Nullarbor, we didn’t see one camel. We got into Ceduna at about 11.30am and had to go through Fruit Fly quarantine first. Today was also our first day that we had mobile phone reception since leaving Norseman, so our...

We were up at 7am ready to head off. We were driving out by 8.30am and heading for Eucla. There were the ruins of an old telegraph station on the beach there and we wanted to have a look. We ran into Geoff and Cynthia here again and had morning tea with them. They had already been down to the telegraph station. We drove down the dirt track towards the telegraph station ruins. William was very excited to be at the beach as there was sand everywhere. The station w...

We were awoken throughout the night to some nice heavy rain. Glad to say we didn’t have any leaks, but the roof was nice and full of water just above Kelley – lucky it held. We were up again at 7.30am and after brekkie we were on the road by 9am. We had to go via Whyalla today, to get new bearings for Steven’s car. It was only an extra couple hours all up out of the way, but was nice to see a town we wouldn’t have normally seen. From what we could see fro...

We were up with the sun again this morning, but it gets very confusing with daylight savings. The sun doesn’t go down until 8ish and isn’t up until 7ish. After brekkie we were ready to hit the road and were driving out by 8.30am. Our first stop was to be Cockburn where we had to get rid of all our fruit and vegies, except our carrots oddly enough. We drove through many small towns and had a very uneventful trip. We drove through Peterborough while William wa...
