I have just noticed that last nights blog was incorrectly labeled Saturday by the blog program it should have been Sunday.

Today's start was in keeping with our new routine we were on the road by 8.15am. One of the reasons, or benefits, of this is that we have very little wind and that means that we save lots of fuel. The scenery was the now usual almost treeless plains of the Nullabor. One of the reasons for that is that the Nullabor is one of the worlds biggest single, I repeat single, pieces of limestone. If I remember correctly all 250,000 square kilometres of it. Shortly after leaving we left we started on Australia's longest straight piece of road, the ninety mile straight. Then we stopped at the Caiguna Blowhole, this is a little different to the blowholes near Carnarvon that squirt water skywards as the waves beat against the cliffs. Apparently caves breath, in when air pressure is high and out when it is low (I hope that I have this the correct way round) and the Nullabor is riddled with caves. This one is a small hole, and cave entrance, just a few metres off the road. Then back on the road where the scenery gradually changed to low trees mixed with the shrubs.

One thing about WA is a marked improvement in the rest areas that often include toilets and dumps, which is not a feature in SA. Another thing we noted toady was numbers of cars passing us, probably returning from Melbourne. There is still a steady stream of vehicles heading east.

We are camped tonight, along with about 6 others, at the Afghan Rocks rest area. I don't know where the actual Afghan Rocks but maybe I will find out tomorrow.
