Along the Eyre Highway

Not much to report from the day today! We had set camp again at Cocklebiddy roadhouse caravan park yesterday. There is a shortage of water in the Nullarbor at the moment. That means there is not always a lot of water to have a hot shower. It also means we cannot carry a lot onboard our motorhome. These days, not enough to be self-sufficient using our onboard shower and toilet. We try to keep water usage to a minimum, but that means we are reliant on roadhouses.

Very green and forested … for a “desert”..!

Anyway, so we left the Cocklebiddy roadhouse and set camp tonight at the Madura Roadhouse caravan park. Again we encounter the water shortage issue and won’t be able to refill our tank. Not a drama. We have gallons of drinking water on board and as long as we are willing to commute fro and to roadhouses, we’ll have showers after the daily marathon.

Can you guess the riddle?!

I encountered the “famous” Nullarbor riddle tonight as I went for a beer at the roadhouse: “YCWCYATDDFTRFDTY”. I find it quite good that Google is not providing the answer, so I won’t display it publicly! I guessed most of it but not all, and I made a donation as a result. It must sound quite mysterious to some of the blog readers I guess! (send me a message at Lootierun@gmail.com if you want to get to the bottom of it).
