Driving lessons at Lake EyreSunrise at Cooper Creek near InnaminckaCooper CreekBreakfast for Bretto and the family – French Line styleCrossing Eyre creek in the trusty 120 PradoSunset at Eyre CreekWe started with 5 cars at Birdsville. 3 Prado’s, 1 JK Wrangler and a GQ PatrolDragging a busted Prado over hundreds of dunes requires a lot of patience and teamwork.We saw very few animals in the desert. Here is one cheeky dingo.Mrs Bretto swapped out the noisy kids for a session in the bone-jarring JK Wrangler with T-BagThe desert is filled with beautiful things if you take the time to look around2 little monsters on Big Red.
