So who here has done the Nullabor?

Mrs Mephisto and I drove it (from Sydney to Perth) about four weeks ago. We got 4,000km done in 3 days, which wasn't too bad.

I've got a good short-cut if anyone wants it. :-)

My dad used to drive road-trains from Port Augusta to Perth so I've done it a fair few times. Love that country, can't wait to drive it myself one day.

Gotta love looking over the cliffs at the Nullabor and seeing miles and miles of coastline in either direction. Love the salt lakes across the WA border too.

Everyone here should make sure they do it at least once in their life... you will not regret it.

Yeah,Qantas has already told me about that one.

Never done it unfortunately.

The longest haul I did was a tour of WA many years ago.We stayed in Perth city as a base camp for a week then went down to Albany,back up to Wave rock,then back down to a place called Ravensthorpe (not far from Esperence).

The journey through Lake Grace on the way back was long enough.

Fun times though as the scenery is just top notch.

We did the Year 11 school bus trip from Melbourne to South Australia, through the Flinders Ranges (flooded out of our tents at Wilpena Pound) and onto NT. Stayed in Alice, then onto Ayers Rock (as it was then) and the Olgas. This dude smuggled some hash onto the bus, and we got way stoned the night before we climbed the rock. We were the last ones to the top and the last ones back down. Man, what a rush.
