Looks like a railway station.....Young perhaps?
BTW, you can still go into Mary Kathleen......we camped there both times we half-lapped. the farmer occupying whats left usually comes around and invites you to dinner at the farm.

Hey Reddo
Some of us (like me) try to find the spot from memory, but some use other methods.
To each his own, I look at it as a memory test, not a test of computer skills.
A bit like the people playing trivia at a pub or club, that use their internet connection to their phone (which I dont have or want)
We are motivated differently, & who is to say what is right or wrong.
Its all meant to be fun

My memory serves me well.....couple of good op-shops in the area too, and a nice place to pull up for a cuppa there. Done that about 4 times. Might be a bit late with a new photo.....having computer issues and can't access my photos......currently in administrator mode.

Its all meant to be fun JBj Too right mate.. The big difference between the two styles of coming up with the answer ...memory v computer search is...... You can boast that you have actually been there and ... your memory actually is still good enough to recall it and identify the location. . Exercising the brain is far better than exercising the mobile phone. I better get off now before I get accused of hijacking the thread again Reddo

Not sure of the meaning of the previous couple of comments.....every place I identify I have been to, likewise every place I post comes from my personal pictures. Try this one.

Hi Peter.. In amongst the last 2 posts was... "A bit like the people playing trivia at a pub or club, that use their internet connection to their phone (which I dont have or want)" The reference was that people cheat at trivia nights because they have to use the internet to search for the answers. I was agreeing with Dennis....in my reply. You don't have to explain to us that you have been there and done that... we know they are your own personal pictures.... Cheers Reddo Read more: vintagecaravans.proboards.com/thread/9011?page=56&scrollTo=108121#ixzz32JCnGGLY

Speaking for our travels, being what you could say is one of the younger of the group, we could plot on an wall map of Australia a line measured in millimeters of where we have been. Having not traveled enough some of us need some 'help' if we were to keep up with the seasoned travelers and have a hope of guessing the locations. Even then some pictures especially those of locations that are not so well known can still be hard to find even with the help of the Internet.

Breakaways? Coober Pedy

Post by humpty2 on May 21, 2014 18:31:21 GMT 10
It's over to you SGL. It is the breakaways....about 15 klm North of Coober Pedy to those who have not been there. It is a must see diversion as you approach CP from north.....brings you back into the East side of town on the Oodnadatta Track. Don't go when it is wet as the road after the breakaways, which follows the Dog Fence, is clay

Just another amazing landscape in this country of ours. We walked all over the Breakaways nearly 4 years ago. Well worth a look. Now I've gone for an easy one. If you know this place, you will get it

That looks like Burleigh Beach, Gold Coast. First holidayed there in about 1957. Been driving past it to Coolangatta for the last 45 years or so.
