Nackara Rest Area, Orroroo and Hawker

We found a lovely little rest area at Nackara and stayed the night.  It was off the road and we shared it with one other couple.  A lovely campfire just topped off the night.







At Orroroo we spent the day looking through the town - a nice little and nice feeling town.  The locals were very friendly and helpful and very proud of their town.  









The place was full of corrugated iron sculptures such as these beautiful horses.





Today we moved on to Hawker located in the Flinders Ranges.   There has been a lot of rain in the last two weeks and there have been lots of road closures.  Today (after checking the road closures and making sure we could get through) we came the back way to Hawker via Carrieton and Cradock.  There was a lot of wildlife (the most we have seen this trip) a fox, emus, wallabies, wedge tail eagles and sheep.
