Sat-Nav says we have 780kms to run, bringing us home at 7:30(ish) in the morning.
Travelled over 7500 km's in less than 10 days has been very testing on the drivers and put too much pressure on 'getting there' rather than enjoying the time and grabbing photos. The troops have been very tolerant of me!!
The cars (two Subaru Outbacks) have simply not missed a beat and our economy has averaged around 9.5 liters per 100kms (both 3.0 liters).
Straight back to work tomorrow - much to do!!!
Just got to get through this last run without seeing any Roos!!
Woke this morning to a wet and soggy Fowlers Bay - rained most of the night. This pic taken at 7:30 am. Our accommodation was a large with a million beds - so we all got a good nights sleep.
This house has been rebuilt over the past 15 years by Reg who previously owned a garage in Nundroo. Had a good chat to him. Power is by diesel generator that runs (noisily) non-stop.
Fowlers Bay Jetty - 14mm lens - 10th sec shutter
Pulled up at Coorabie - another tiny town that now boasts only a small school and a few houses.
Photo taken laying on the road using the 500mm lens. That's Crispy off ahead. Had rain showers for a few 100km's.
This photo a 4-stitch. Photos taken hand-held with the 500 mm lens.
This is the 'Head-of-the-Bight' built recently to provide a lookout to the many whales that frequent the area.
My auntie was part of a select bunch of volunteers who died just over a week ago with one of the other volunteers in a tragic road accident just a few kilometers from the building.
Whale with a baby albino calf.
Swallow on the fence at the lookout.
Crispy gives his 400mm lens another workout!!
Another Pano (3 pics) taken further down the road at the bight...
AMAZING cliffs.
Taken with my 90mm Macro -at the Eucla remains of the telegraph station.
Another large load on the Eyre Highway.
Most semi's are road-trains and very few now run at night.
Highways were very quiet after 10pm. We would drive 200 km's and not see any vehicles!!!
Run up into Madura Pass.
Taken looking back standing up in the sunroof!! 500mm lens.
That's Kelly driving.
Best burger we've had in a while!!!
At Madura Pass - a DECENT Hambuger - with taste, juice running down the arms etc etc.
MacDonalds are NOT a patch on these!!!!
