What a night! Himself turned the air conditioner off late in the evening as he thought it was finally cooler, I did not agree! Come morning I moaned about the lack of sleep owing to the heat, Himself muttered about the number of trains that passed us during the night. Seriously, I hardly heard them even though we were parked right beside the busiest rail line in Western Australia. That caravan park has the Great Eastern Highway as its front fence complete with the constant flow of trucks passing in the night on their way to Perth with their important loads of freight, and on the other side of that is the main rail line between Sydney and Perth with their competing loads of freight from the Eastern States. Constant and noisy. Not a lot of sleep.
We were up and travelling fairly early today, like everyone else in that caravan park!
Somewhere during the day the Melbourne Cup stopped a nation but we motored on stopping in Coolgardie to discover that Gai Waterhouse had won her first Cup with an Irish horse.
We made it into Kalgoorlie and met up with Himself's aunt who was pleased to see us and invited us to dinner at one of the local hotels and we have just returned from a wonderful dinner and lots of catching up She will come to visit us tomorrow for a first hand look at the inside of the travelling taj mahal. So hope she likes it.
