WA cops and we met Hitler's offspring. (Bean)

Phone blog here as we sit at Caiguna Roadhouse. A drive of around 850km today as we gained an extra hour and a half due to time zone changes.

WA border fruit quarantine we met Hitler's offspring. Talk about thinking he had all the power of someone with more serious authority - a totally depressing man.

The cop we met a few minutes later was much more charming (for an old guy) and I quite happily did a breathalyser test. He asked if I had done a drugs test  before. I said no. I was looking forward to this. Turns out it's just a scrape of the tongue ( mine - not his).

The Nullarbor is quite impressive although there are more trees than I had imagined.

I saw over ten dead wombats today. As for Roos - well don't drive this road if you are squemish. Look here's s pic of a long straight road. 

Here's another. 

We listened to Prince the whole way.  His purpleness certainly funked up the drive.

We stopped at some Bight views but they are on other camera so will post tomorrow. Now sitting in Roadhouse camp area drinking wine. Look:

Also amazing that they have 3G connection here.

Tomorrow we are off to somewhere but can't quite remember where - Esperance I think.
