Just a photo to let those who don't know what a road train looks like. Imagine seeing that appear in your rear vision mirror and know he wants to pass you and they don't like you to slow down or they loose their speed or momentum so you can not pull off the tar seal on those sometimes not so wide roads where the red dirt edges are soft. Some times all you can see in the rear view mirror is the grill of a huge Kenworth truck, it's no time for day dreaming ! Steph just loves it .lol

Marlene & Geoff Yep we know how it feels ! Amazing and scary. better photo than mine tho I had to take 2 to get it all in @ Sandfire roadhouse. good to keep up with your travels wish we were there and its still cold and wet in Perth.
Tony Yeah you would have to be pretty cool calm and focused when a road train is tale gating you. That's up there with driving on a tight 3 lane Sth bound Pacific Hwy in Sydney morning traffic. It's like a race track even in dark wet conditions! No room for error.
Stephanie Marlene & Geoff. Glad you are enjoying the blog. We went to Sandfire also do you remember the beautiful Peacocks there? In Broome v v hot but such a great place especially beautiful Cable Beach. Keep warm. Xx
Stephanie Tony. Yes we did that stretch of road in the rain one time I was petrified.
