West across the Nullarbor

The signpost at Eucla.

Crossing into WA near Eucla felt like a bigger milestone than we had expected. There had been plenty of road already, but reaching the WA border brought a distinct feeling of coming home. And a welcome timezone change* (* WA timezone, not the weird thing that happens around Eucla itself).

The photos gather up some of the crossing: big coastal cliffs, roadside signs, a stop with the giant whale and the camper beneath another changing sky. There were long stretches where the road itself was the main event, followed by a view that made us want to stop again.
