No more maccas.
This is the lesson that we learnt today. After a marathon four hour session in Adelaide, then a one and a half our session in Port Augusta, we've realised hat the frustratingly slow wireless internet isn't worth it. It indeed seems to be the cause of all our arguments at the moment. So. Yes. No more maccas.
As aforementioned we're in Port Augusta today, which seems to be the crossroads between everywhere and nowhere. From here we could head west to Perth or (as we are planning) north to Coober Pedy. Amanda tells me that Port Augstua is the point that Flinders reached before realising that this wasn't the elusive North-South river system that would subdivide Australia. We spent an hour or so at the mouth of the river today pondering htis, and watching Iago play in the water.
As a result of our McEmbargo, we have only tentative accommodation plans for the next week. Coober Pedy is all set, but there is a bike race of some description in Alice Springs this weekend and we might be pushed to find anything. I'm feeling confident however that there will be someone willing to let us set up our tent somewhere.
We'll see what happens.
Pictures will have to be updated at a later point.
