The Land of the Aliens & Others

Today we decided it would be a lay over day after traveling every day this week. We stopped last night at a remote roadhouse/carava park at Wycliffe Well, the home of the extra terrestrial visitors to Australia. They have reported many mysterious sighting here of strange events. We witnessed one last night out the front of the roadhouse where there was a fair bit of commotion coming from a few locals. Apparently someone wasn't happy. We had some very nice neighbours for the night all doing the same thing. Sending the kids inheritance. A short drive down the road today where we are camping under the Southern Cross at the "Devil's Marbles". Janine & I have been out and about the rock formations taking in mother nature. Very busy camp site here and will be full to the brim by night fall. The sunset & sunrise over the rocks is supposed to be spectacular. We will find out tonight. This blog is coming to you courtesy of a NT hotspot in the grounds of the park. It has been good just kicking back today and just enjoy the day out of the car. Well it is 3pm here and that's close enough to beer o'clock for me. Back on the long black track tomorrow heading to Renning Springs or there about.

The Nullarbor, Eyre Highway

We are now homeward bound but there is still some site seeing to be had. To most the trip across the Nullarbor seems a bit daunting, that never ending black ribbon that never seems to end. This is our first crossing and we are coping with the long drives each day quite well. We are expecting to take four days to get from our turnoff at Norseman WA to Port Augusta SA. Along the way we are camping on the road side at various locations. Our first night at a stop called Woorlba. Nice bush site and ideal for a fire pit & a beer. The next night, Wednesday18th we had the view you could kill for. We were just inside the South Aust. border and high on a cliff with an uninterrupted view of the Southern Ocean at our door step. Very popular with other vans scattered about with their own spectacular views.  We were a little confused for a while as we mored into a new time zone. We had to move our clocks one & a half hours forward. Caught us out as we had forgotten about that when c...

Broome - Pearling Industry

14/9/19  Well I’m back. For the past six days we’ve made our home in Broome. It wasn’t a long drive (220Kms) compared to some of the driving we have done getting from point A to point B on other occasions getting around this vast country . Broome is a large regional town (Kimberley Region) which is quite spread out along the coastline. We’ve been staying in one of those outer areas called “Cable Beach”. This is the most popular area of Broome as it is very close to the beautiful stretch of white sandy beach. To our surprise we soon learnt that if you had a 4x4 vehicle you could drive along the beach for kms. Not having to ask me twice, we were out there asap. Whilst driving along at the restricted speed we saw a lot of other sightseers, fisherman and others. As we were just driving along, taking in the scenery I said to Janine, “did that bloke have his pants on”, We soon realised that some of he people of Cable Beach live a carefree lifestyle. They don’t alway have their clothes o...
