Dog Rusty and I spent several weeks crisscrossing the amazing
Nullarbor. It’s called the flattest place on Earth. In the north, the
railway runs straight for 478km (297miles) without a bend. Once we
camped where the moist climate of the ocean meets the dry air of the
inland. That’s a battle line and produces the fiercest sunrises I have
ever seen (like the one at http://www.oz-greetings.com.au/photo/8 .
Click on the shot to enlarge it). In the south are the forbidding
Nullarbor cliffs battered by the Southern Ocean. At the Head of Bight
is a major breeding and calving site for the huge Southern Right
Whale. One can view them from the top of the cliffs - the best viewing
spot in the world. Most tourists stick to the perfect highway. I love
the inland. From horizon to horizon nothing more than ankle-high. It’s
otherworldly. And the night sky is overwhelming.
There’s a lot about that fascinating spot at
