Well we decided to put the Prado and the Pod through its paces today – unintentionally! We decided to go and have a look at Lake Eyre. Well to get to Lake Eyre you need to follow a ‘track’ across the desert for about 67kms. The ‘track’ was just that, full of large corrugations, major potholes and dust. On the way along the track the landscape was unbelieveable,and changeable, one minute we drove through sparse desert country and then through featureless black rocks that looked just like a moonscape. When we finally arrived at Lake Eyre, just a bit shaken up, we realised it was well worth the effort. Before us was a huge expanse of salt – as far as the eye could see. Quite sureal, it looked like snow and crunched just like snow when you walked on it. This was a major contrast to South Lake Eyre, which we visited yesterday, which had water in it. Spending the night in Coober Pedy – might shout ourselves an underground motel room seeing its getting late.
