The Great Australian Bight looking west.
I was so happy with the way this photo came out - taken with my mobile phone of all things - yes it is not fine, high quality photography, but I think it is pretty good for me with a phone.

This, by the way, is not a sight that many Aussies have seen - it is just too far for most people to drive. Having said that plenty have seen it, just not many in the big scheme of things.

The run across the Nullabor, which is the only way to cross Australia by highway is not a hard drive, just long. 

Would love to do it across the middle (4x4 only) but that sort of trek I simply don't have the time, equipment, or money to do.

However the Nullabor crossing is a great drive which everyone should do at least once - although for some people once is enough.

And I also would love to do the crossing over the top - travelling North from Perth, heading across Northern Territory, and coming back down through North Queensland. It is paved all the way, but can be a more difficult drive apparently - especially if the weather is not great. Hope to do that one in about two years time.

One thing I think I want to let people know is that Australia is great, and that Western Australia is greater than the rest.

But that of course is just my opinion.

But here my opinion counts!
