12/05/2015 Darwin (Australia)

From today we're at last on the road again. Starting from Darwin we will drive during the next few days across the 1680 miles long Stuart Highway, which connects the north with the south of Australia. Our first stage leaded us 516 miles to Renner Springs, which is nothing else then a petrol station with a connected motel in the nowhere.

The Stuart Highway is very well constructed, but rarely driven, partially no other car encountered us for 20 minutes. On the left and the right of the road there's nothing as outback, wilderness and millions of termite mounds, sometimes the sight on a dead-straight section was more than 3 miles.

Encounters with Australian road trains, that are trucks with three or four trailers, that race along the highway at  more than 80 mph:
