I went for years without really noticing the loos I visited, Jill – now my first thought is to take my camera in with me, although that sometimes scores me some VERY strange looks 😀 I thought if you’d been on one of the ‘tracks’ you would have been through Lyndhurst – but there’s more to it than meets the eye!

hmm… at first glance I thought Lyndhurst was one of those blink and you miss it places, but then when I went back and checked on my photos from 2013 I realised that we had in fact been there. My husband actually changed the tyre on our camper trailer in the carpark of the hotel because the tyre repair guy had gone to lunch! No doubt I did visit the loo, as you do! Happy travels Red!

It’s a real blink-and-you’ll-miss-it town, Diane! A tour bus probably wouldn’t have stopped there unless the bus was full of railway enthusiasts! I wasn’t actually going to write a separate post about Lyndhurst, but I really like the photos I took of it and thought they deserved their own outing!

Thanx Yum! As lakes go, it’s not that amazing – other than it’s location!!

I would LOVE to do the Ghan trip, Kathy – I’m SOOO jealous! The older I get, the more I like the nothing – there’s something about those dramatic Outback colours and vistas I find very appealing. Even though I AM a fairweather traveller who only sees them when the weather is cooler!

I must have driven through Lyndhurst on our way to Maree and Lake Eyre but I can’t say I remember it. (we were on a tour bus). The colours are magic.

Great shot of Lyndhurst Lake with the reflection of the trees in the water. I have an Aussie post for you today Redz 😉

There sure is a lot of nothing out there! But I do love the barren-ness of the outback, the blue skies and the ochre dirt. It has an appeal all of its own. I haven’t driven through the centre of Australia yet, only done the Ghan train which was incredible.

The Outback is full of intriguing stories, people and landscapes, Kozue! Just the sort of place where legends are born!! Even a UFO landing 😀

The “legends” (I need quotation marks!) are so fun to read! I’m not used to this kind of stories – I’m not Aussie – but I don’t hate the atmosphere. With your photos of outback views, I can imagine that the “legends” could take place there.
But I like the UFO the best, actually!!
