Car troubles
Today was an interesting day to say the least.
It began like this.....
We then found our first geocache of the day
Next we drove to Madura point lookout which had this for a view (the picture doesn't really do it justice, it was quite beautiful)...
Here we found another geocache
All was going well until....
A hole blew threw the side of the engine block :( This is what we saw on either side of us
After 2 hours of waiting, our tow truck arrived and took us 126kms to the town of Eucla. Tomorrow we are getting towed another 550kms over the South Australia border where the truck shall be fixed. We'll be stuck there for a couple of days at least while we search for money fairies to help afford the costs which will likely be drastic. It's been a long day and I'm feeling like tomorrow is going to be an even longer one. Fortunately I at least get to sleep in a warm bed tonight. WOOHOO!

That lookout is really beautiful! Not like anything I've seen before! Thanks for posting that pic!! xoxxoo. What an eerie feeling it must have been to see nothing but road and more road when the truck was broken down! Yikes!! Warm bed is good.
