Arrived at Eucla.

Eucla has a population of 368 and is not far from the border of South Australia. The town is the largest stopping point between Norseman and Ceduna for travellers and trucks along the Eyre Highway.
There is a hotel and restaurant, even a golf club near by.
A telegraph museum dedicated to the Old Telegraph Station, and a meteorological station.
Fishing is also at Eucla.

In the 1890s a rabbit plague passed through the area eating dune vegetation.
Eucla has a mild semi-arid climate with the highest temperature recorded in a January of 48.2C (118.8 F)


Have no idea who these women are but they wanted a photo taken.
