The Super Pit is one of the Australia's largest open pit gold mines...I have wanted to see it for a long time...I was absolutely amazed at the depth of the pit. Lorenz and I were thankful that Jenny drove us to  the lookout in the rain.


The enormous trucks looked so tiny....gives you an idea of how large this pit is.


Lorenz and I are staying with Jenny and Irene (above) in The View motel...the rain continued for most of the day and it was bitterly cold and very windy...not at all what we had expected to experience in Kalgoorlie.


The nicest part of the day was at around 5 pm....this photo is of the little artificial lake next to the clubhouse...



The stunning Goldfields course...it didn't look so beautiful this morning when we played, so nice to see it in the sunlight.

My good friend Jane Ellis lent me this book, she thought I would like it. I did...absolutely loved it. It was not the sort of book that I would normally read but am so glad I have.

The boys call this place "Secret Beach"....not very popular and stunning views of Cowaramup Bay. Ethan and Flynn threw rocks in the water for quite a while...


Flynn...he is an amazing rock climber...


Flynn and I were amazed at how clear the water was...we could see our feet perfectly.


Lunch outside amongst the trees...
