Day 117 – Nullarbor: Bunda Cliffs to Hancocks Lookout

Last day on the Nullarbor! It was a lot quicker and less painful than we had anticipated, which was nice. Nullarbor translated means no trees, and the Nullarbor Plain is exactly that. Well lots of scrub. But definitely no trees....

Day 100 – Cape Le Range

We made it to day 100! Exciting stuff. We calculated that we’ve travelled around 20,000km so far – which is halfway around the world! And 5% of the way to the moon. So that is awesome. So today we packed...

Day 99 – Esperance

First thing was get up and get to the tyre place and cross our fingers that the puncture was repairable and we didn’t have to buy a new tyre to replace the brand new one we had just bought! And...

From Lake Douglas we headed off back through Kalgoorlie and started on the road out to Menzies to fuel up at their self serve 24 hour fuel stop at the abandoned road house with all the number plates stapled up...

Day 97 – Kalgoorlie

Oh man so many flies. We had to retreat from the rest stop because there were zillions of them. Thankfully Merredin was just up the road so we pulled in there and made some banana pancakes in the carpark whilst...

Day 96 – Yanchep National Park and on to Kalgoorlie

We left the rest stop relatively early and headed straight for Yanchep National Park, which was just down the road, and it was lovely to arrive before the crowds did as it’s relatively close to Perth and quite accessible for...
