Back on the Nullarbor

We started the Nullarbor again on Sunday afternoon, we stopped at a roadside camp about 180km in, most of the camps are really good along the Nullarbor, they are all quite big with lots of trees and shade. As we had stopped at all the lookouts on the way over we didn't stop at too many on the way back. The wind was heaps better than on our way over and the ocean was mostly calm. We stopped our second night at the Eucla roadhouse caravan park. We drove down to the old Telegraph station that is now cover in the forever moving sand dunes while we were there, it was well worth the visit. The Nullarbor was quite abit drier than on our way over, they must of had some really warm days in the last 4 weeks. We got to Ceduna Tuesday afternoon, and it was nice to stop for awhile after a couple of big driving days, as well as losing 2 hours across the boarder.
