Headed south getting to Marla which is about 40 km south of the Border, a little blip on the map with a gigantic road house - couldn't believe the business they were doing - in the hour it took for us to have dinner they put out over 50 meals and equal amounts of alcohol - all very reasonable prices. Kids found some old games machines and for under $10 spent another hour entertaining themselves.
Travelling out of Uluru the kids put the DVD player on while we pushed into the headwind. Feel a bit hypocritical letting them watch the DVDs but they are quiet and happy, and we now have the code for look at that or listen to me pretty down pat. The argument of look out of the window see all the new things you are going past proved a bit difficult to put forward when Gordon and I started playing eye spy - tree, road, car, sand, road, truck, sign post, dead tree. You had to wait 2 hours to be able to say hill, the landscape is so flat and same0 same0, but you need to get the Ks under your belt to get somewhere else. At the border saw a van called the Erin Mark II so had to get a photo.

Kids have been writing a story about their camels sort of scifi starwars meets Robin hood so they have been amused in the car.
