Kimba - the town in the middle of Australia

Driving east from Baird Bay, we ran out of daylight. We chanced upon the town of Kimba - behind the "giant galah" in the town centre read the sign, "you are now at the midpoint between Sydney and Perth". After a quick photo of the sign and the galah, we set off again for Port Augusta, expecting to arrive there sometime around 930pm. The folks were telling us to drive carefully and slowly as there had been many accidents involving kangaroos causing damage and injuries to humans , cars and Roos. So we did...well below the speed limit and kept our eyes peeled for Roos. Trusting in the roo deterrent sirens/whistles installed on our roo/bull bar...our driving skills and the power of prayer. Along the way we Saw a number of Roos at the side of the road contemplating whether to cross or not...
