After a bit of a hiatus I and going to try and get my blog going again. Joy and I have traveled back in time, well figuratively as we are back in Australia. No there are no fire anywhere near us as a matter of fact it flooding here in the Northern Territory. There are two Cyclones around and we are in between them. No worries as the Austrians say, we are in the far north heading south with three options. We head west and chance cyclone Blake has washed out the...

  My blogs seen rather tame at the moment as we spend a lot of time driving and seeing that there is almost no traffic there are long stretches of nothingness. We counted 22 minutes between southbound cars at one point. We have only encountered half a dozen cars northbound with us. Even the road trains are far apart not seeing but maybe six of those in a day. ** *Our sites are set on getting to Coober Pety after Woolmera. Coober Pety is about 4-5 hours nort...
