Leaving Erlunda early the landscape soon changes as we get closer to the South Australian border as we are moving into one of the driest parts of Australia. We said goodbye to the Northern Territory with a little sadness as we have thoroughly enjoyed the many varied and beautiful places we have visited. Between Erlunda and Coober Pedy there are only a couple of petrol stops before little white pyramid hills are seen as we approach Coober Pedy. I did not know what to expect to see here....it is a very different place as the landscape is very arid and the results of the opal mining is everywhere....and very dangerous for the uneducated person. We spent the afternoon walking around the town and pondering what it would be like to live underground.
