Fellow Travellers
When we arrived in Balladonia we came across someone else on a major cycling excursion. This makes ours appear nothing. A German woman Dorothee Fleck is essentially travelling around the world with all her possessions on her bike. It was a hybrid bike with custom frames added to support the required paniers. Looked real heavy to us. She had started the Australian leg in Darwin and gone anticlockwise from there. Including the European and Asian legs she has done about 40,000km so far!!! This appears to be the second such trip she’s done and when I asked if she was going to South America she said "Another time".
Back on Air
We’ve been out of wireless broadband coverage since leaving Norseman across the Nullarbor. Now that we are back into civilisation in Ceduna, coverage should be right from now on. After travelling down to Streaky Bay tomorow, we have a rest day, so I should be able to cattch up on some of what’s been missed.
One good thing about being away from civilisation is that, since there are no church halls, school halls, recreation centres etc for us to stay in, we have had to stay in motel units and therefore had a proper bed to sleep in. Now its back to the air mattresses etc.
