Day 11 – Eucla to Norseman – 738 km – 4562 km Total.

Longest day yet.   I have now completed the Nullabor crossing part of the trip.

Still trying to get my head around the time difference which is now two hours. eg 8:00 here is 10:00 at home.

Got an early start at just after sunrise out Eucla this morning and headed for the first refuelling stop at Mandura and breakfast.  As you leave Eucla you  drop off the platue and have cliffs on the right until Mandura where you go back up onto the platue.

Next refuel was Caiguna which is just before the 90 mile (146 km) straight.  $2.19 per litre.  Glad I was on the bike.

The straight was interesting as it undulating and the scenery changes a bit between no trees to lots and back.  Both Kenneth and Wuffy were doing the “Are we there yet” thing the whole length of the straight but I just turned the music up and ignored then.

Last refuel was Balladonia and after that is was mostly a run through more timbered country into Norseman.

Staying in the only caravan park in town as I needed to do some washing.

It would be far to say that Norseman has seen better days with most of main street  boarded up or empty.

Off towards Kalgoorie tommorow.
