Coober Pedy

A lazy start to the day. Washing done even though water is tight. The park has water for sale at 20c for 30L or so. The wind dries the washing in no time. We headed off to see the underground Catacomb Church (I kept calling it the Cathedral) which was a bit of a letdown.
Then off to the Old Timers Opal Mine for a visit. This was really interesting and an education in how the old miners worked. An easy way to spend a couple of hours. After that a visit to the Old Gaol and the Original Cemetery completed our sight seeing in the town. There seemed to be a disproportionate number of young children in the cemetery. Very sad.
Finished the day with a pizza from the in-house restaurant.Læs mere
