List of firsts ever on our first ever genuine outback adventure:

(click on the photos if you want to view them as a slideshow)

  • Drove the Oodnadatta Track 


  • Had a corker of a blowout on the Oodnadatta Track (our second spare tyre change in 2 days) 


  • Went without any form of reception for 2 days (good thing we had a PLB and UHF radio)


  • Contributed to roadkill (hit a roo - they're a pest in those parts so don't feel too sorry for it) 


  • Walked the surface of Lake Eyre 

  • Saw 2 dingoes 


  • Had a "natural spa" in the middle of nowhere (Coward Springs)

  • Got up close to a Wedge-tail eagle 


  • Almost ran over a Woma Python 

  • Contributed to the William Creek Hotel wall (come visit us there) 


  • Met the quirky folk in Coober Pedy 

  • Covered 500km of unsealed, corrugated roads 


  • Made use of the long-handled shovel 



What a cracker of a time!  We'll post some more photos of other adventures soon.  At the moment, we write this from the town of Nullarbor...  on the Nullabor!  Will probably spend the night somewhere on the Eyre highway then gun it for Esperance in the morning.

Love lots!
