Kalgoorlie to Cocklebiddy

Today we have lined up a fairly easy day, but not before we sus out a few sights around this very historical town. First on the list is the super pit and what a pit it is , it is impossible to explain the size of this hole in the ground it is so incredible . As we drive the streets viewing some very old buildings we come across the shady past of this old mining town, yes Hay street is alive and well . The worlds oldest profession is thriving in this old town. 0930 we had better fuel up our bodies before we hit the wide open spaces of the Nullarbor Plains . We will have all eyes focused on the road ahead today because Red and Blue lights scare the driver ,we will undertake this 700k journey with care and caution . These wide open plains don't have not much to offer the travelled hardened traveller but we manage to stay on the side of sanity till we reach our resting place tonight. COCKLEBIDDY . The evening meal was fine but the wine was harsh ,so we retire to have a night cap . Stingy people out here I tried to borrow 4 wine glasses to take back to our room ,but a solid NO so now we sit at this lonely desolate bit of space in the middle of nowhere drinking some $9.99special out of a vegemite jar. Well the lads have found another gear so I must stop blogging and take care of the next round of fun.....WADDA
