Paddock Trip Day 2


Gday Readers
It¡Çs day 2 of our adventures
I wake up about 7ish and Yuki is already up and getting the FIRE going
Damn I¡Çm getting worried about this girl
I think she might be a FIRE bug aHa aHa

We have a look at the scenery grab some breakfast and head off about 9ish
Bit of a Terroristic tour trip through KALGOORLIE or KAL as it¡Çs called over here.
One of the stops is the SUPER PIT...
Damn that¡Çs a big hole in the ground. It¡Çs also the last time we see traffic lights in W.A.

Lunch and refuel at Norseman also last time we have mobile phone signal in W.A.
Yuki is absolutely fascinated by country side
and I¡Çm thinking to myself how boring it is Not much around
but bit of road kill ( dead kangaroo ) and the odd small tree or two
We reach the 90 Mile straight ( 146.7 Km ) Yuki can not believe it 90 mile of dead straight road
The sun is starting to go down and the kangaroo's are starting to come out in force
Damn this into the first parking bay we find and set up camp for the night

Yuki is wondering what is going on so I explain to her if we hit a ROO the car will be going home by a tow truck...
Those buggers sure make a good mess of most cars
Setting up the tent and there is another SCREAM... Yep YUKI again...
I start laughing thinking it¡Çs another shoe, she is yelling saying it a dead person...
It was only foot skeleton of old EMU...
Ha-Ha Poor girl she was terrified all night.
It didn¡Çt help when we heard a sickening thud as a road train went pass on the Hwy.
Yep another dead ROO
