It was a very hot day but Pete and I wanted to see as much of Coober Pedy as we could. Above is a photo taken from The Big Winch Lookout, which is in the centre of the town.

Pete standing on the artificial turf of first tee of the Coober Pedy Golf Course. There wasn't a blade of grass on the whole course!

Faye's underground house....built by hand by three women ... most of the furniture has been retained from when the ladies lived there.

The Serbian Orthodox Church, one of the two underground churches that we visited.

The Dog Fence is the longest continual construction in the world, stretching 5,300 kilometres, built to protect the sheep country in the south from the Dingo in the north. It is about 15km from Coober Pedy.

The magnificent and vast Moon Plain is a mass of dark and shining rocks....15 kms from Coober Pedy.

Kanku- Breakaways Conservation Park ...is an Aboriginal Heritage Site and stunning landscape 23 km north of Coober Pedy.

  

After all that sight seeing we searched for a cool place for a rest and a drink...where better than an underground bar!

After saying goodbye to Jan and George, we began our road journey north ...one of the first interesting sights we saw was the Snowtown Wind Farm situated 150 km north of Adelaide. There are 137 turbines. 

We had a brief stop in Port Augusta...

Our hired car and camper trailer...and driver.

Approaching Coober Pedy...sooo flat.

All set up...didn't take us too long either....

....managed to do it before the sun went down. 

Today Pete and I flew from Perth to Adelaide. We spent the night at my dear friend Jan's home. She and her husband George looked after us well and we had a delightful evening.

"Join a Club Day " at Curtin today.

Pete and I visited Will this afternoon....

...and went to the beach with Tash, Will, Rusty and Lottie. Boy, do they love the water.

Will went to sleep gazing up at this beautiful tree and sky.

After feed before bath smile...so precious!

The first fairway at Busselton, we had beautiful weather for golf.

Angie waiting to hit....

It seems almost everyone in the family is away from Perth. Tash, Todd and Will are down in Denmark for a long weekend and Mandy and Gra are in Vietnam.

Thanks to Michelle for this one of Chris looking so relaxed

I'm down in Busselton for a ladies golf tournament. Nola and I had a brief stroll on the beach after our game.

Two good friends, Valerie and Jenny at the dinner this evening...

Nola and I traveled down and stayed together.
