The Great Australian Bight

I love the trip across the Nullarbor meaning no trees or very few.  The road is mostly flat, water is scarce and Roadhouses are but a few. Beautiful scenery for part of the way if one drives off the main road at designated roads to see the Great Australian Bite.
1,100 kilometres (684 miles) from East to West according to Wikipedia.

Tail Race Park, Trevallyn Tasmania.

I have my father staying with us, it's interesting to say the least :) He manages to get a mug out to pour some water for his tea and has the mug upside down, thank goodness he didn't burn himself.  That is just one thing of many that he does because he's legally blind.

We all went to the youngest grandchild's 1st birthday party at Tail Race Park yesterday, had a barbecue on a lovely humid day.  I am yet to discover why it's called Tail Race Park.
The park was lovely and green with 3 barbecues underneath a canopy, and there were about 3 of those within the park, it's first in gets the use of the barbecues. Didn't take a photo because everyone was camera shy :)

I zoomed for this photo.

Nothing would be complete unless there were swans.
