The Long Nullarbor

BalladoniaEyre Highway today and then we stopped at Balladonia and there was a museum which had part of Skylab!

IMG_0119Next was very, very b-o-r-i-n-g. It was the Nullarbor and especially the straight stretch which goes for 146.6 kilometres. Finally we go to a town. It was Cocklebiddy. It had a gnome garden. A sign that said… IMG_0115
We couldn’t go to Cocklebiddy caves because you had to… be an experienced caver, you had to have proper shoes, eave expected times of return because of the steep slopes, unstable rocks, low ceilings, deep waters and slippery floors.

We went to Eyre Bird Observatory next and saw some views of the Ocean. They looked amazing.

We drove to Eucla and stayed the night at the caravan park.

In the morning Mum, Harry and I rode our bikes to the old telegraph station. It was bricks stacked on top of each other. It was very old.

After we crossed the WA/SA border we stopped off at some viewing places to see the Great Australian Bight. It has rabbit holes. It looked like a giant shark had bit into it.
