Day 14

Got out of Caiguna as soon as we could and started riding east.  The goal for this day was to make it to the place we had camped on the westerly journey.

We stopped at Eucla for lunch and while we were there we thought we take a look at the old telegraph station which is slowly being consumed by the sand dunes.  I told Amelia that I needed to take photos so that I could show the "girlfriend-like-creature" what would happen if we're not diligent with house work, she said that that sounded like a joke that Ashley would make.

1. Another stop along the way was so that Amelia could put her old shoes onto the shoe  tree.  Its an odd thing and I don't know why people do it or how it started, but the are a few specific trees which seem to have become the final resting place for worn out shoes.  It seems as though it might be related to the practice of shoefiti. Amelia added her old camping shoes which I think she said came from her trip to Italy.

We made it to our camping spot just on sunset, just in time to set up the tents.  We were pleased to our cairn still standing showing us where to camp.  Amelia collected some wood and we had a little campfire to help keep warm.

We had a nice dinner and finished off our cask red.
