KALGOORLIE The
Supercut at the largest open cut gold mine in the Southern Hemisphere. We were there when they did a blast, the earth shook but not a lot of dust. The size of the cut is unbelievable and the machinery just looks like a pimple. The machines are all over $1million dollars and have a speed limit averaging 40
kms an hour.

This gives you bit of an idea of the size of the scoop.

Some great old buildings in town and this is just one of the hotels, in the towns hay day there were 93 of them. The streets are all very wide as the supplies and water were all bought in by camel trains and they needed to be able to turn around as camels cannot walk backwards.

The historical
Questa Casa Brothel,
Australia's oldest working bordello. Over a hundred years old it is the last of the original tin bordellos. In the gold rush there were 300 men to 1 women and these establishments were very popular as you can imagine.
