Alas we have no bananas

Today we drove from Broken Hill to Peterborough crossing the NSW-SA border. There was a sign adjacent to a ditch- not much to show.
There were long patches of reduced speed for road works but not much actual work.
There rest stops in SA so far have been very primative - a place to pull over with shaded picnic table, and that's all.
About 18km before Peterborough we were stopped and handed over all our fruit - tomatoes, pumpkin, avocados, strawberries and papaya. I was really looking forward to eating that papaya.
