Sat, 2nd April - Kalgoorlie

We rose early again (I think our bodies were still on NSW time) and drove on to Kalgoorlie, arriving at around 10am.  We were able to check into our caravan park early which gave us the afternoon to have a look around.  We drove to the Super Pit (gold mine) and were blown away by the size of the hole in the ground.  

We walked for a long time looking for somewhere suitable to have lunch and settled on a small take-away shop.  It appears that there is not much open on weekends in Kalgoorlie.

Later in the afternoon we went to Questa Casa brothel to do the tour of the oldest continuously operating brothel in the country.  Here 'The Wrecker' spent $36.00 (senior's discount x 2) and we had a bit over an hour in the brothel.  He thought that was good value!!  The girls still stand in the open pink doorways advertising their wares.  After dinner we drove back up to the super pit to see it working under lights.On returning to the caravan park we saw one young lady talking to a fellow in her doorway.There are currently three brothels operating on Hay Street.

We can't get over how much rubbish is on the sides of the roads wherever you go around any of the mining areas.  It is so filthy!
