Norseman and the Nullarbor

Our time at Cape Le Grande was wonderful but it was time to move on, especially as we woke up to a overcast day which does make for a good travelling day.

Norseman is located in the Goldfield-Esperance region and is the start of the Eyre Highway and the last biggish  town in Western Australia before the South Australia border.It has a population of about 1000 people and at 9am on a Saturday morning in seemed like a ghost town, it was an old gold mining town in the day so the buildings are interesting. We filled up with diesel and drove on !!

We know were in outback country again and looking forward to the many rest stop camp stops along the Nullarbor Plain drive which is about 1200kms from Norseman to Ceduna in South Australia.

The flat treeless limestone plain of the Nullarbor. It is sealed all the way but no fences!
