Cape Le Grand to Eucla

From Cape Le Grand we headed up Permango Road, not always easy to navigate (photo), on a four wheel drive track to Belladonia. We visited a couple of historic homesteads along the way which highlighted the harsh environments and living conditions that the early settlers endured trying to establish a life in the remote, unforgiving and infertile soils of the far south west.  (photo). The cold wind and occasional rain dictated a sheltered overnight stop which was conveniently facilitated by an old shed off the Eyre Highway on our journey to cross the Nullabor to fulfill one of Sue's dreams (photo).
Tonight we are at Eucla where Sue is viewed surveying the runs of the old telegraph station during the afternoon (photo) before we booked in to the caravan park for a long, long hot, hot shower and a bottle of red and a steak and salad dinner.
