After a quick walk up and back down the small hill adjacent the caravan park we had breakfast. Wendy then got stuck into a days’ work and Greg toured the city. He did the Info Centre first and then tried to find a few other tourist attractions but the maps were a bit off and there were no signs to indicate anything. We were going to do a mine tour in the afternoon, but at $80 ea we thought it was a bit steep. We were also going to do a self-guided tour of the underground hospital, but lack of guidance dissuaded us. Greg spent both mornos and lunch in the great outdoors whilst Wendy earned another few $ to keep the dream alive.
After work we took a drive to the Lookout but the sun was in the wrong position to take any meaningful photos, so off to Coles it was to acquire a few items we forgot to get yesterday. A refuel on the way home sees us all topped up for the next leg of the journey.
We had a post dinner drink with Y&G after they got back from their dinner date at the same pub we went to last night.
