Central Australia And Beyond: After Finally Hitting The Road

We left Melbourne's 110km an hour winds behind us on Tuesday morning. Not the best day to choose to travel, but we didn't encounter any difficulties. We had originally planned to stay in Mildura for the night. When we got there we went out for dinner to a pizza and pasta restaurant and chatted about keeping going for another couple of hours. We googled free camping from the car and found a couple of options to camp beside the Murray River. We decided to push on to South Australia and eventually got as far as Berri. We arrived about 11:00pm and it was pitch black making it a little hard to set up. We were also trying not to disturb the other campers who were all asleep. We had no idea what we would wake up to! Much to our delight it was just beautiful!
