Walker's Travels in Scandinavia 2017 and others
Day 52 Fri 1 Jul 16, Madura to Ceduna, 673km, fine and sunny 4 to 18 deg. We continue our trek across the Nullarbor! Up early for a 6:45am departure; another glorious morning, crisp and clear. However that didn't last long as an hour or so later we were driving in drizzle; it has rained every time we've crossed the Nullarbor - twice. It's supposed to be a desert! Refueled at Eucla, $1.54 lt which isn't too bad. Called in for another look at the Great Oz Bight, the ocean was rough and beautiful. Made a travel brew and it was back on the road with a driver change. Lunch was at a rest stop after we had passed the roadhouse at Nullarbor. At the SA border checkpoint we had to surrender our packets of salad mix and coleslaw; both we thought were ok. They had just about reached their use-by dates anyway. Pulled in at the Foreshore Van Park, Ceduna at 5:05pm (including 1 1/2 time change); another long day in the saddle. After setting up camp we went for a walk around town before nightfall. Dinner was leftover venison sausages, onion gravy and veggies. Nice but good to see the back of them and get onto something different.
