DAY 65 - 23/04/2010 - Coober Pedy, SA & SA/NT Border Rest Area, NT

Back on the road again after leaving Coober Pedy. We had done some last minute fruit and veg shopping at the Miners Store on our way out of town.

It was amazing how many mines are dug up just on the outskirts of the town. As far as the eye could see there are earth mounds everywhere. Apparently over a billion dollars worth of opal has been dug up from this area and how much more has been dug up unrecorded I wonder.

We only drove as far as the SA / NT border. There was a rest area here. People were already setting up for the night when we arrived. We met some more lovely people here.
