Our Trip went really smooth, no problems at all.
At Kieth during a pitstop, we have a visit from the highway patrol, but he was just interested in the cars.
He let the kids sit in his cruiser and play with the flashing lights while the mums & dads got some photos.

Leaving on monday morning we stopped at maccas.
When I came back out to the car, it was surrounded by six young japanese tourist snapping off a heap of pics.
One of the girls politely asked if she could sit in it,
Well that started a photo frenzy with them all taking turns behind the wheel while they ripped of another hundred photos :shock:

Image

Driving back coming up to, and past the town of Pathadway, the locals have all made scarecrows along the side of the road outside their properties.
I had my wife Karen photograph them as we flew past at 110kph, she did a great job, only missing the fisherman.

They are well done, and help brighten up the trip.

Just lip the guards! Or change the offset on your wheels?
