Southern Cross in our Sights

Wildflowers at Newcarlbeon Rock W.A

We woke to another sunny day if a little windy. No frost this morning and we soon left this lovely little spot behind. We headed back to Korda then onto Mukinbuddin for morning tea before ambling through more wheat fields stopping for lunch just past Bullfinch (we were reluctant to stop in the “town”, I thought I could hear banjos and pigs squealing but I may well be wrong). From there through still more wheat fields and arriving in Southern Cross early which was fortunate as the Agricultural Show is on tomorrow and we wanted to stay in a caravan park to do our laundry and have a shower. We are on the last available sites so all is well.

Tonight we will have a quiet drink in camp before deciding how far we will go tomorrow but its looking like we will be heading back across the Nullarbor earlier than expected. We all decided that the attractions of southern W.A. didn’t outweigh the colder weather so we may as well look to head home, perhaps having a little side detour along the way.
