The weathered picnic table at Cocklebiddy Roadhouse.
From 2019 I am living a more relaxed life. After 35 years I am retired from engineering practice.
You can expect me to mention retirement projects, travel and of course the beloved.
My hobbies may include nature, camping, repair, and reading.

Ecula
Parts of the Ecula caravan park are shady and have ocean views.
This is another caravan park without water.
Edge of the Nullarbor
We had an easy drive from the Nullarbor Roadhouse to Ecula.
Along the way are three well signposted lookouts.
At the lookouts the undermining of the cliffs was obvious.

Nullarbor Roadhouse
Nullarbor Roadhouse packs in the caravans. Each Site has power but not water.
In the showers you pay for hot water.
The Right Whale
At the Head of the Great Australian Bight.
We watched a mother and calf cruise past immediately below the lookouts and very active whale vigorously slapping its tail under the cliffs.

Recycled Telescope
Once an earth station run by OTC. Now it is a radio astronomy telescope operated by University of Tasmania.
About 70km North of Ceduna at the end of OTC Road - a wide unsealed road with some slippery patches.
You cannot do anything except look at it and take a photo.
