The Great (dead) Count

Ok, so you've heard what a long boring drive it was across the nullarbor....for three long days. We needed a plan - we had a plan! (well, while Adam was moaning, Alexia had a plan!) 'I know,' Lex said, 'what better way to pass the hours by than to count all the dead things we see along the way?!' 'Terrific' said Ad....and so the great Nullarbor Tally began....

Now the results are in... enjoy!
