We got away late from Canberra and drove for 28 hours straight to reach Copley near Leigh Creek about half an hour before totality.

The last couple of hours I was doing the pinhole viewer thing on the seat beside me and really sweating on whether we would get to a decent spot.

I had my T90 film camera and a Sony Mavica (the 4 images to a floppy one). I'll have to look the prints/slides out.

We'd planned to go to Ceduna but couldn't do it in the time. The dirt/outback style caravan park at Copley gave us a bush to park by for that night and the whole trip was a truly memorable experience.

We did take a week driving home and visited some scenic spots and a few wineries (hic!).
