I'm sure they did, but I doubt many of us would have seen it displayed as a graphic that shows just how vast Australia is.
Good post 'Drop short'

Oh, we see, ooman: you mean either you lacked atlases or the mental capacity to perform spatial comparison.

West Australia is still the best place I've ever been - I'd planned to do a full circuit in a year, but only managed Perth to Darwin...it really is massive.
When I was there (15 years ago, and I doubt it's changed much) West Australia had 1.8 million people, of which 0.8 lived in Perth - Perth was lovely, Perth to Broom was amazing, and then after Broom it was just surreal...you could drive for hours on the 1 main road without seeing anyone; and off the main road you could go days tongueout
