Nullarbor Part II



This was taken at night during the peak of last night’s storm and the scene is illuminated purely by the lightning!

Immediately after leaving the Caiguna Roadhouse I started on the 96 miles straight.



I must admit that I noticed little difference as the whole crossing of the Nullarbor seemed to be in a straight line, although I admit there was the occasional deviation of a degree or two at times.  The sky was very grey as can be seen in the photo but fortunately it cleared gradually to clear blue but there was a chill in the air.   I came across an area which had been subject to recent bushfires and it stretched for over 20kms.

 On reaching the end at Norseman I turned south for Esperance and on the outskirts I spotted the dealership who would be checking my tappets to conform to the warranty conditions so I stopped for a chat and to discuss possible solutions to my rear suspension problems.  Whilst there a bloke turned up on a Harley and I asked him to recommend a campsite.  He came up trumps and I have been very comfortable here.
