Drove in to Kalgoorlie after a short look around the old Ora Banda Inn this morning.

Went straight to the Caravan Park as we hadn't had a shower for a couple of days, fortunately we were there at 9am as we got their last spot, $26 no power, we haven't needed to plug in to electricity since leaving home as yet.

Did washing and cleaning up then went and did the touristy things around town. The highlight was the huge open cut pit, with the huge trucks so slowly moving up and down continually working away like ants except they were each carrying 220 tonne of ore. The scale they work on is amazing, this pit extracts $70,000 of gold per hour.

Went for a drive around this evening, ended up getting a couple of things at Kmart.
