Stop at Daly Waters. One gas station, 1 shop, 16 residents.
Daly Waters Bank. The wall behind the bar has at least $3,000 worth of wallpaper. Each banknote bears the signature of its owner. The banknote, stamped with the visitor's name and date, is pinned to the wall with a thumbtack. The savings deposit can then be converted into liquid currency the next time you visit the pub. Many a tourist then brags at home about their savings account at a bank in Australia.
We reach the area of the Devils Marbles. To the indigenous people, the marbles represent the eggs of the Rainbow Serpent from the Dreamtime.
How are the big marbles created? The minerals in granite have different thermal expansion values, so that their volume changes differently with temperature fluctuations, causing mineral grains to detach from the rock and flake off like onion skins.
We are at the Tropic of Capricorn. At this point, Australia's climate is divided into the tropical and temperate subtropical zones. Here the sun is exactly at its zenith at noon on December 21.
