Madura to Streaky Bay. Back to the same place we stayed before where we saw the rays and the tide was so low we could walk out to the middle. We were hoping for a nice day to get in some swimming after the LOOOONG drive across that stinking plain, but it was freezing. It was the next best thing though.
The second drive across the Nullarbor Plain wasn’t too hard either. It really gets incredibly repetitive and you start to lose your mind just a bit, but it’s not as burly as some may think. It probably helped a bit that we broke it up into 2 days, but there was a lot more traffic this time…and fewer animals! I also got to sleep a lot more than I did the first time, since Matt made me get up at 6am to start driving. So early….
As I was saying, Streaky Bay was really cold this time. It was a bit weird to spend the day sweating and then step out of the car and immediately put on a hoodie and pants. Not what I expected.
We went to the grocery store to finally restock our fruit and veggies. We went nuts and spent more money than we should have. Shortly after we left, we were looking at the map and realized there was another quarantine check point just inside New South Wales and we’ll probably end up having to eat more than we can handle or throw most of it away. Bummer. I guess if that’s my biggest concern right now, then I’m not doing too bad.
