The Road Home

 We left Ayres Rock, headed for Coober Pedy again.
We stayed at Coober Pedy that evening. Because we got in late we decided to get a pizza for dinner.
The next morning we were up early and on the road again.
By the time we reached Glendambo the Triton was running like clockwork again.
We decide that we would take a short-cut through to the Eyre Highway.
We took a right at Glendambo and drove out to Kingoonya. The famous Kingoonya Pub appeared to be closed down.
We then proceeded to take the route from Kingoonya south through Lake Everard and into the back end of the Gawler Ranges.
The track started out good and after the first 100 k's I was wondering whether I'd made the right decision.
After 8 hours without seeing a soul on this track, we came out around Poochera.
From there we drove through to Streaky Bay. We stayed at Streaky for 2 nights and made our way back across the Nullabor and eventually home.
