14 July - Coober Pedy to Mt Ebenezer HS

More driving. I seemed to have forgotten the vast size of this country but despite the remoteness and huge distances we have seem hundreds of vans and camper trailers under tow and dozens of motor homes. Hope someone is still working.

At the NT border we received a big welcome. See pic.



We paid a $1.77 a litre for diesel today but I guess we need to get used to it. After a long days drive we stopped at Mt Ebenezer roadhouse which was ‘find a spot out the back somewhere’ in a vast open paddock. At least we had showers and toilets which usually keeps the ladies happy.

However, Kaz is not happy with some of the language, sometimes even including hers. We suggested she provide guidelines as to what words are offensive but it seems any that starts with F is a candidate if it is used with intention.
