Broken Hill to Woomera

This morning we left Broken Hill, heading west with the planned destination of Port Augusta 

We crossed into South Australia at just around 9am. Neither of us even thought about bio laws and we had to sadly dump the fruit and veg we had just purchased in Broken Hill. I have to say I did down s few apples in pretty rapid succession.... lol

But I understand the importance of these laws and respect the law... so it looks like fresh fruit shopping at Coober Pedy. 

As we travelled along the Barrier highway we passed through some super cute little townships. 

These trucks loaded with Feed have sadly become a common site as they travel from South Australia into New South Wales to help keep our farmers stock  alive. This truck driver was telling me he does this trip at least once a week. 

Crossing over the  ranges we soon found the landscape change to lush green and in the image above you can just make out the blue waters , our last sighting of coastal water as we head inland. 

we decided to pass Port Augusta and keep moving onto Woomera, we soon returned to the arid landscape we had become familiar with around Broken Hill

This photo was taken from a “photo point” we weren’t sure what we were looking at , but we later worked out that where you can see beige is normally “island lagoon” a salt lake.  It was another fairly long drive but enjoyable with the rapidly changing landscape. Our choice to press on will give us a chance to see the sights of Woomera which we probably would have missed and give us more time in Coober Pedy.

À bientôt
