Red Cliffs - Broken Hill by car driving
Driving is quite boring, especially when everything is flat and no distinct differences can be seen. Just shrubs and sand and weeds and grass and small trees and grass and shrubs and weeds and ...
I made it eventually and did a lot of plant images on every stop I made. I made a lot of stops, at almost every rest area. There is water in the Darlington river which is unusual. All along the Murray river is fruit plantations, grapes and oranges mainly. I picked some fresh oranges myself, just a view.
Halfway I wanted to make me a sandwich and I noticed I had forgotten all the fresh food in the fridge in the last motel. No way back, it hurts a little.
To arrive in a unknown strange place is always, again and again, weird. I will probably never getting used to it.
