Today we drove into a place called Arltunga, Central Australia's first town. It was built because of a Gold Rush. Once we got there we had a look at some old tools and kids toys. We then drove to an area were there were some old ruins of the village there. We walked through the ruins of the Post Office, Police Station, Gaol Cells and Managers Buildings. We also went for a few walks and they including climbing down into some Gold Mines. I found learning about the past very interesting. We also drove to a place called John Hayes Rockhole for a look. While we were there we also climbed up to a lookout to get a good view of the spectacular landscape. Then we stopped again on the way back to the caravan for firewood so we could have another fire that afternoon. I enjoyed sitting around the fire and it kept me nice and warm.
