Is this art? I don't know...

Reunited with Kate in Adelaide

Home sweet home - There was no room in the inn so they put us here

Cadney Homestead. Stopped here for breakfast before heading off to Coober Pedy. Yet again a lovely morning.

Catholic church in Coober Pedy - underground and at constant 24C

And still the road keeps going......

On road between Coober Pedy and Glendambo

Sunset on way to Kulgera - the BIG 273 kms day - what a way to finish

Finally a good coffee! Pausing in the Flinders Ranges

At the end of a very long day, Coober Pedy to Glendambo

Powering up the Flinders Ranges

And cruising down the Flinders Ranges

Look Mum, no hands

The bathroom at Wilmington Hotel, like stepping back into Cokethorpe circa 1976

In wet weather gear, waiting for the rain to pass in Appila, SA

Strolling into Burra, SA for dinner

Almost there...

Before

After

 

A bit excited at the sight of mounds

Off to do some Christmas shopping

Crossing the Dog Fence, which stretches 5,614km across Australia.  But it's not keeping me out!

 

What do I look like???

 

Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear!

Proper boys toys.  Look at me, I've got 86 wheels.  Quite something when these things go past you
