Yeah... we made it! We drove half a day on 4WD tracks from Cape Arid National Park north to the Eyre Highway.
The Eyre Highway connects Western Australia with South Australia. You drive fom the village Norseman (Western Australia) to Penong (South Australia) 1120kms without any village or town!! The only reminder of population is the roadhouses that you can find every 100kms. As a comparison: If you drive from Flensburg to Garmisch-Partenkirchen it is only 1014kms. Imagine this long way without any population!!!
Here one of the most boring sections of this highway! Here you really can cook a coffee while driving the car!
One straight road for 146km! Unbelievable!
Here you can see some seconds from this amazing drive:
Cocklebiddy was one of the roadhouses and this sign says everything...
Big, bigger, Australia!
Eva was a little bit sad when she had to leave WA.
But we definitly were also quite curious how it looks like in South Australia.
The first few hundred kms were quite similar. Nullarbor = zero tree!
Impression of a roadhouse in the middle of nowhere.
Sometimes it is also very nice to visit the rubbish tips on the side of the highway. A lot of rust but the chrome plated handle is still OK!
Even in anywhere there is a gas station. Mad and outstanding at the same time. You think more long german highways would be bad ...
