I have had many people say to me that this part of the trip will be boring&#8230;how wrong were they. Yes, there are stretches where we had to entertain ourselves&#8230;more good music and conversation, but there is so much to see. The ever changing landscape, the incredible views in many spots, the unique roadhouses every couple of hundred kms, watching Mals knuckles when the road trains pass us and trying not to look at all the road kill&#8230;kangaroos, emus, wombats etc. Sad. The animals don&#8217;t mix well with the road trains. We had a mission to find the most expensive fuel&#8230;$1.92 a diesel litre. A captured market !!!<\/p>\n<p>The first night we slept by the side of the road again, but on a cliff overlooking an amazing view of the Great Australian Bight. See the photos below.<\/p>\n<p>The second night we pulled into a sheep station that offered somewhere to park the van. It was called Fraser Range Sheep Station, and we both enjoyed the stay a great deal.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully you will enjoy my photos that show our trip far better than I can describe.<\/p>\n<p><a
