Day 3 of our Nullarbor adventures.
We cross over the border into SA and shortly the Bunda Cliffs will start to appear along the coastline.
The Old Telegraph Station ruins are in Eucla. We drive up to it as far as possible and then we climb some sand dunes to get to it. Sometimes its all buried under the sand but that was not the case today and we can walk thru it.
I would like to say that Lilly was doing sand fairys but no she was having a tanty. Doesn't want to get back into the car. Hahahahahah
We cross over the border into SA and shortly the Bunda Cliffs will start to appear along the coastline.
So close but yet so far away.
There are lots of scenic lookouts along the way. The cliffs were an amazing sight. Breathtaking. Its a 100m drop into the ocean and there are no fences to protect sight seeers.
We get as far as the Head of Bight and its quite late in the afternoon. We intend to see this tomorrow as there is an entry fee and we fear that it will close shortly.
We set up camp close by at a rest area called the 157k Peg. There are no toilets or bbq's here but its such a pretty spot and we position ourselves behind some trees to protect us from the weather.
Tonight we have a hungi style bbq. Tomorrow we will be going thru quaranteen and we need to eat all our fresh fruit and vegies otherwise they will be confiscated.
Waz builds a campfire and we foil wrap all our vegies and throw them into the hot coals to cook. I've got spuds, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, carrots and even mushies and cabbage cooking in the coals.
Our first views of water.
We ignore this sign and proceed on and snapped the following photographs.

Our hungi was a success and everything tasted so good. We toast this great dinner with some Margaret River wine.
The girls are in bed, an owl hoots in the distance, our bellies are full with great food and great wine and we are sitting next to the camp fire watching the last bits of wood burn. "Hows the serenity".
The wind has changed direction and is blowing thru our camp site. We put the fire out and retreat to bed.
Goodnight Nullarbor.....
