I really enjoyed Ben’s video of the Australian outback town of Cooper Pedy - I could not help thinking of the film “Priscilla Queen of The Desert” when I was watching it - and even to be in the same country that gave the world Kylie Minogue was amazing too ❤

We stayed a few days in Coober Pedy when my kids were young. All adults now they still will tell you that when we checked into our motel, the owner gave them solo cups to trap the bugs in our room. The bugs were so big, all night long you heard the bugs crawling around each under a plastic cup. Good memories. .
