4 October – Balladonia to Past Eucla

We are looking forward to another long drive today including completing Australia’s longest piece of straight road that stretches 145km.

Todays highlight was seeing the old Eucla telegraph station that is almost covered by sand dunes. This was once the busiest telegraph station in Australia, outside of a capital city.
We also stopped at a couple of lookouts to take in views of the Great Australian Bight.

We again stopped at a roadside stop somewhere east of Eucla.
