Today we headed for the Bight. You wouldn’t believe it – Diesel was $1.87 out here on the Nullarbor at Nundroo (same price as Alex was when we left – work that one out).
We got to the Head of the Bight. There is a big tourist complex built there now and you have to pay to get in. They have built big raised board walks down to the edge for you to view the whales. It was absolutely fantastic. They said there was about 25 Southern Wright Whales out there and we saw about 10 of them. One whale came right in close with her calf beside her. Just cruising along. The views of the cliffs were great too.
We then headed for the Nullarbor Roadhouse. We went in to have a look and to no surprise, the prices we saw on the board were expensive. $9.00 for baked beans on toast, $12.50 for bacon and eggs and $7.50 for soup with a piece of buttered bread.
Along the way we stopped at a place called Bunda Cliffs along the Great Australian Bight. The park was actually closed due to “erosion” but we decided to walk in anyway. What a sight. In Steve’s words “it was……….. AWESOME”. He compare it to Ayers Rock. The cliffs are just amazing - straight drops down.
We moved on and stayed at the last camp spot 10km before Border Village and WA quarantine.
