The Drive to NSW

<Mum>
We had a long 2 days of driving, travelling 1650km from Alice Springs, NT to Broken Hill, NSW.  There is only one sealed road in outback SA so we needed to retrace our steps for part of the way.  We have travelled over 6500km just over 2 weeks.




The kids are now conditioned to the long days of travel and there was almost no fighting - AMAZING!

We spent the night in a free camp - this is almost always a carpark on the side of the highway and it is free - hence the name.


We were lucky at this one, as there were longdrops, whereas sometimes there are no toilets at all!
Surprisingly there have not been many flies around the longdrops but the stench is overpowering!

With no town and no lights nearby, freecamps are a great spot to look at the stars.

<Asha>
In the morning we left just when the sun woke up, but the moon was still up and awake to when it was supposed to be in bed, it was playing with the sun.
