Trezona Camp Site We landed in camp about 2.45pm and set up camp at a rather slow pace. Not much later a car came scouting around the camp ground and then disappeared. Some time later they turned up again, caravan in tow and camped next door. So much for the planned naked moon dance we had planned. Little midgie things chased us inside earlier than we would have liked. So we had an early night and a cool breeze made sleeping quite pleasant. We woke wi...

Well today is a catch up day before we head further North. Gertie got a new front tyre and a digital tyre pressure guage and - yes she got more - she got a new headlight wiring contacts, as the original ones had got hot and lost their temper - who wouldn't in this heat. We are camped at Port Augusta Big 4 - $36 a night - mmmmmm We got a two month pass to stay in almost every SA National Park for up to 5 nights for $80 - mmmmmmm It is warm today and we are hop...

Night one we caught a storm after what ended as a hot day. Like each storm here so far, lots of blow and bluster but not much in the rainfall department.

W...

The run to the border is rather short and soon we found our selves, posing for our photographic assistant (the tripod) for a shot before we crossed the border. We had lizards on poles, emus and other distractions as we did the run across to Olay - this is what I expected Silverton to be like - this place is terrific - old crumble down buildings - no ...

It was hot, just below 40c when we reached town - we were looking for the caravan park on the North West side of town. The main roads in Broken Hill are partially signed, so we found ourselves asking, but where is the road to Silverton? We pulled to the side of the street just North of the Tourist Information centre. And that is when we met Des. Des and Wendy run a little old pub (well it once had a licence) with accommodation - we did a bit of a chat and he...
