We have made our way slowly from Sydney across the Nullarbor to the delightful little town of Denmark. Route: Sydney - Wagga Wagga - Mildura - Port Augusta - Ceduna - Eucla - Norseman - Esperance - Albany - Denmark.
We had to dispose of our fruit and vegetables as we approached the Mildura area, due to the anti-fruitfly regulations, and then after restocking, we had to stop and eat our fruit and veg. before crossing the border at Ceduna.
We went for a ride around the outskirts of Port Augusta, which reminded us both of the Zambian copperbelt - dry and dusty, but somehow not unpleasant.
On the Nullarbor, we came across two separate sightings of emus, and surprisingly saw a lone dingo. We also saw quite a few cyclists making the big trip. We felt sorry for them, because the winds were not blowing in the right direction.
Esperance and Albany are both peaceful and beautiful with lots of good cycle tracks, but so far Denmark has the most appeal.
