Did a spot of housekeeping before wandering down the historical streets of Boulder. I've never seen so many great old pubs in one town. One building still housed the original pharmacy with all it's bottles of potions and lotions which is now a museum. Talk about stepping back in time. It was great. We drove to the Superpit Lookout and watched what looked like tiny ant sized machinery going about their business. The pit is massive. At 1 o'clock we came back and watched a 'blast'. It was incredible. First you saw the dust rising then the cracking sound followed.

Kalgoorlie is huge. It had every shop under the sun. It has some very impressive buildings too and more great old pubs. Our final stop was a drive past the Hay Street brothels.
