Default My little trip

Well I managed to forget to get the camera out at the Nationals but managed to take some pics along the way both to and from Goulburn.
So here are afew (quite a few so if ya get bored I understand).
Darwin guys, this is what you can look forward too (add a further 1500kls each way).

Leaving Alice on the Saturday morning.


Here is a road sign just outside form Alice Springs, gives an idea of the distance.


Heading into a small dust storm, this is about 250kls south of Alice.


Here I am at the SA/NT border (more red dirt).


This is about 150kls or so north of Coober Pedy, more red dirt and the Cobra is still on the trailer.


All parked away for a sleep at Coober Pedy.


Some more of Australia's lovely countryside, about 200kls south of Coober Pedy.


Passing a train at Lake Gardiner in South Australia.


Some more of Lake Gardiner.


Canola fields in Clare Valley.


Heading home after the Nationals, somewhere west of Wagga Wagga, with a truck slowly reeling me in.


He caught me.


Some dust storms along the Hay plains in NSW, at one stage it was so thick I could only see about 20 metres past the bonnet of the cruiser.


Here is Gav getting ready to pass me.


Getting sucked along behind a truck, about 100kls north of Coober Pedy.


Finally home, Poor Cobra needs a bath.
