24/9/11 Norseman to Caiguna

On the journey from Norseman to Caiguna we went into Newman Rocks but we were attacked by dozens of biting horse flies so we made a rapid escape.



We travelled along Australia's longest straight stretch of road.



On the road we passed two collections for charity. The "Storm Trooper" on a walking journey from Perth to Sydney was collecting for the Starlight Children's Foundation.




A trio, one pushing , one riding and a support vehicle driver were on a journey across the Nullabor from Norseman to Ceduna and were collecting to support a sufferer, the brother and grandson of the walkers.


We stopped at the Caiguna Blowhole. This is an entrance to some of the cave systems under  the Nullabor and, depending on conditions,  it "breathes" air out from underground. Quite a strong breeze was flowing out of the hole while we were there.
