Monday 26th March 2012 Day 27 Uluru NT to Coober Pedy SA


Today its 250km just to get back to the Stuart Highway heading to Coober Pedy so in all it’s a 700km trip making it a long day. Travelling along to South Australia we noticed that the red desert look was more pronounced here than in the Northern Territory.

We didn’t do much other than petrol at Marla and by the time we arrived at Coober Pedy we were dog tired but soon woke up looking at the weird landscape with piles of white dirt everywhere from the diggings. We soon set up the tent found a pizza shop and enjoyed a cold beer, but whilst sitting in the drive thru a bloke comes along trying to flog of his $1000 opals Darren gave him a quick no thanks.
One thing about Coober Pedy there are millions of FLIES!
