Kalgoorlie

When we arrived we went to the Saint Magaret's Mining Festival. It was cool.  We got lots of lollies and saw some dump trucks lift up their trays in the street parade.  We went to the Superpit.  It is the biggest open cut gold mine in Australia. We saw some dump trucks starting shift and saw thirty or so trucks leaving the parking area up the top. We saw a few get loaded .We went out for tea with friends at the Albion Hotel, I had a kids lasagne. It was yummy.  We also got an icypole.







The dump truck was massive.
