A couple and their dog have had an incredible chance rescue after they walked more than 40 kilometres in the sweltering heat of the South Australian outback without food and water, stopping to leave notes and etch "SOS" on a dirt road along the way.
The pair became so dehydrated they didn't have enough saliva to swallow the food they had with them. They hardly spoke because their mouths were so dry, with Ms Wong struggling to walk. The pair were taken to the Royal Flying Doctor Service remote clinic where they were checked over by nurse practitioner Chris Belshaw, who found them to be "a bit emotional" but in "remarkably good physical condition". Their car was later retrieved with the help of a ranger.
Hope this is in sunday's age coz I'd like to read this. Foreigner's I presume.
Went for a road trip in the outback without the necessary research or supplies. Lucky to still be alive.
And here i was just reading the headline and seeing the pictures thought it was because they weren't wearing their masks while driving
