Went for a drive into town and this is one of the many hotels here, beautiful old buildings from the gold rush that was here in the early 1900's.

This is a really old town, houses are all red from the wind and dust, all cars are covered in red dust as well, because there are lot of people here working in the mines.

Also went and had a look at the super pit, and it is a super pit, it is huge. It was blowing a gail. It has been very hot here today, about 40 degrees,but a slight cool change dropped the temperature a bit, so it is much nicer now. Sitting outside with a drink and some nibbles.... Tomorrow we will venture out a bit into the country side.
