Phase Two of the Aussie Odyssey

Time for another update. It's Sarah's turn driving so I can sit here and bash out a post!

We've finished the Great Ocean Road, which despite slightly touchy weather was spectacular. We drove up ti Halls Gap in the Grampians National Park and spent two nights there, and last night we stayed in Clare with my aunt and uncle. Being in a real bed amd not having to pack down the roof tent was looovely!!

The sun shone determinedly for our drive through the Barossa to Clare, and has hung in there ever since. I'm confident the rain is well and truly behind us now thank goodness.

Our places bear has several new additions:
The Arch
London Bridge
Bay of Murnanes
Bay of Martrys
Logan's Bay
Hopkins Falls
The Grotto
Worms Bay
Peterborough
Lake Bolac
Lake Bellfield
Halls Gap
Silverband Falls
Baroka Lookout
McKenzie Falls
Nhill
Tailum Bend
Barossa Valley
Clare Valley
Clare
Port Pirie
Port Augusta

There's a seriously long straight road between us and Coober Pedy, and the wind today is rocking the Tonka all over the place, but not to wprry.
We're on holiday; it'll take more than wind to deter us!

We stopped for fuel at Glendambo, which was last fuel before Coober Pedy. Fuel has been 139.9 fairly consistently up to Spud's Roadhouse in Pimba, where it was around 149.9.

It's just on sunset, which looks amazing - the colours continue uninterrupted across the entire horizon, slowly fading out at the edges. Bit hard to catch on camera at 110kph though, and we're so close to Coober Pedy neither of us could be bothered stopping. It needs to be wine time!
