The long straight road

Monday, 25th of May - no phone signal, so this post is late again.

During the nights stay at Bunda Cliffs we have had Dingoes visit our camp area and howling next to the caravan like I never heard it before. We suspect they were looking for edibles in the rubbish bins or they could smell the dogs in the caravan next door. However, the rubbish bins are "Dingo proof", so the Dingoes didn't hang around for long and we quickly got back to sleep.
Having travelled some 10°west since leaving Balhannah, the later sunrise/set has become noticable. Waiting for the sun to rise, we didn't get out of bed until 7:30. Again, we were grazed with a little morning shower before we got going and we enjoyed a few more drizzles along the way, but there was nice sunshine in between the showers.
It was only 75km to Border Village at the WA border where quarantine do a very thorough inspection of both vehicle and caravan, checking every nook and cranny for things such as honey, soil, pine cones, cardboard fruit boxes and many other things. We handed in our remaining vegetables, unhooked the van so the inspector could get access to the back of the vehicle, hitched up, and were on our way after a half hour stop at Quarantine.
We told quarantine that our kids are a pest - but they didn't want to keep them!
For lunch we pulled up at Madura Pass lookout where we enjoyed another great view over the Nullarbor while enjoying out packets of soup as we no longer have any fresh fruit or vegetables and we want be able to restock with fresh stuff until we get to the other end of the great plain.
One of the days highlights was a bend in the road after the longest straight sealed road section in the Oz. It starts at Caiguna Road House and runs straight for 146km, that's an hour and a half of travel at 100km/h without a bend - Very little wear an tear on the car's stearing system!
The fuel out here is a little bit more expensive - the most we paid for Diesel was $1.60 / lt.
After a record 625kms for the day, we finally pulled in at Balladonia road house. The caravan facility provides power and toilets but no water - just as well we got some left in our tanks.
We are now some 23°west of our home and the time difference between nature and our body clock certainly makes itself known.
Once across the border into WA, every little roadhouse has tree clocks, one showing Adelaide time, another showing Perth time and yet another showing their local time which is related to their distance east or west from Perth.
When we arrived in Balladonia the sun was still fairly high in he sky and we adjusted the clock back by an hour and a half.
I suppose when one experiences time difference on air travel it's called "jetlag" - I wonder if what we are experiencing is be called "carlag" or maybe even "caravan-lag"?
