Nullarbor

12 - 14 August 2013
I was expecting desert while crossing the nullarbor plains however I was presently surprised by scrub, trees (except for the treeless plain) and green grass. There was even water laying in places. The first day driving was good but the second was really windy. The third was a breeze and we made it all of the way to esperance.

On Monday we stopped at the top of the bight to observe the southern right whales. They have their babies there and they feed them up before going south. You couldn't miss them, they were everywhere.

We also stopped at a few lookouts and the last one we camped at for the night. The next night we stopped just shy of balladonia.

In esperance we are staying in a caravan park looking out over the bay. The weather forecast doesn't sound great but we can always hope they've got it wrong. So far it is very windy and a little cold.
