Well after a rather cool night we woke to a beautiful sunrise, only buggered up by the thick blanket of fog!



     Today was a transit stage, we stopped and had a look at the ruins of the Lake Bonney Hotel, it is amazing to contemplate the tenacity and endurance of the human psyche, to build a pub in the "absolute middle of bloody no-where" - but they did.   


       We travelled through Burra, where we stopped for an early lunch, the Burra Bakery does a really good pie!  We continued on to Port Augusta, where we had a little break, whilst we refueled, both car and body.

      We continued onto a wayside stop, about 60 km north of Port Augusta on the Stuart Hwy.  The road was a bit straight......




    But we managed to set up camp, enjoy the fire and a break, cook our meal, have the dishes done, and all before the Royal wedding.....





    Tomorrow, we head towards Coober Pedy, once again we shall see what the day brings.....
