Hi all. This is an old and well flogged subject, but we have had a really unusual experience driving west across the Nullaboor from about Echla. Nearly all RVers waved or raised a finger (not rudely I hope) and probably about a half of those driving non RV vehicles. We even counted 7 road train drivers...

The town is about a 20min wal...

About 10 days or so ago I stumbled onto this web site. I made a few posts and got into it. Then I had a contact from a neighbour of mine from back in the 1950s.

In the supermarket the other day I bought a heap of caravan and camping magazines. One of them had a good article on free camping.
