With another 550km ahead of us today and the caravan park not taking pre-bookings, it was an early start leaving Coober Pedy at 7:30am. With not very much between Coober Pedy and Erldunda we planned only one stop for fuel and morning tea at Marla (which is the start of the Oodnadatta Track on the North Western end) and then straight on to Erldunda. It was amazing how many caravans and RV's were on the road today and in particular when we pulled up for fuel and to check in at Erldunda there were numerous vans lined up. Erldunda is the centre of Australia and the last stop on the highway before turning off to Uluru.
We have now made our way into our 4th state - Northern Territory, already passing through NSW, VIC and SA along the way. Erldunda is a roadhouse, motel and caravan park. The park has wide open spaces within a remote desert/bush setting, that has been the most attractive to us thus far.
Beautiful sunset over the desert, emu's, pool etc. Girls were able to get the soccer ball out and enjoy a bit of time out of the car and caravan.
Jade managed to get herself stuck in the toilet which I found quite amusing :)
On to the rock tomorrow - stay posted!
