Further west on the Eyre Highway today on our continental crossing.

We will see how this pans out – a stop at the Pantry (Pan Tree).

We found a non-stick pan and a stick pan.

A fan meet! Penong Windmill Museum – collecting windmills from far and wide across Australia – fantastic place!

The Comet, biggest windmill in Australia.

The Eyre Highway passes through large sections of mallee trees.

The Nullarbor Plain is part of the area of flat, almost treeless, arid country between the Great Australian Bight in the south along its coastline and the Victoria Desert to its north. It is the world’s largest single exposure of limestone bedrock occupying a vast area of about 200,000 square kilometres.

Head of Bight – Southern Right Whales are seen here from June to October.

Massive sand dunes on the eastern side of Head of Bight

And on the western side are the magnificent Bunda Cliffs that stretch for 210km. The cliffs provide a good vantage point for whale watching.

Mother and calf – this is one of the few places Southern Right Whales give birth in south-eastern Australia. This is the Sea Section.

This image was a fluke.

Wildflowers at the Head of Bight

Australasian pipits (above) and singing honeyeaters were common close to the cliffs.

Nullarbor Roadhouse has its own whale. This one is service-stationary.

Grey nomads can’t wait to see the new movie “Caravan Park”. The trailers look amazing.

One of the most photographed road signs in Australia

The famous Bunda Cliffs of the Nullarbor are reputedly the longest unbroken line of sea cliffs in the world.

The highway is close to the cliffs for many kilometres.

Coastline close to Border Village

Border Kangaroo golf hole at the Nullarbor Roadhouse – a par 3 of the longest golf course in the world with the 18 holes positioned between Ceduna and Kalgoorlie. It was pretty rocky here but that’s just par for the course.

It was tough on the fairway and it took a lot of balls to finish the hole.

Rooie the Subaru with Rooey II at Border Village – our stop for the night near the WA border. Rooey II was the winning name in a competition. Rooey also happened to be the nickname of one of the owners of the Roadhouse, so the sculpture became Rooey II. The addition of the jar of vegemite is just a kanga-ruse.

Border Village is next door to the border quarantine station to stop fruit, vegetables and honey from being taken into WA. We will miss our Manuka honey we had to surrender. Bobby Goldsborough would be devastated. “And honey, I miss you and I’m bein’ good; And I’d love to be with you if only I could….”
