My photos for the first three days were on my iPad, which suddenly on Wednesday evening died on me. Hence these photos are now from the card in my camera.

In Port Augusta, we first visited the Wadlata Outback Centre which gave us a great idea of what the land was going to be like where we were travelling over the next week.
