In some respects this trip to OZ has been a real eye opener. It reminds us of America with much less people. The West is absolutely amazing, miles and miles of unexplored beauty.
Wish it was as well connected as America, but I think that is an economic issue, there simply arent as many people here.
Greyhound is the only carrier that connects all the dots, which is great, but in a way is monopolistic. Though their KM Pass is economical, I'm sure their Express Fares will b expensive. But imagine a trip from Perth to Darwin on a coach - 56 hours. Have to admit, without the hop on hop off option it would have been tiring.
But we travelled as we wished and the daily service will pick us from where it dropped us and we were on our way.
I have a renewed respect for Greyhound now. At least they are helping people see the real country.
