Sun, 3rd April - Coolgardie

We decided to leave Kalgoorlie behind as there is nothing open on Sundays.  If we stayed, we wouldn't have had much to do.   We drove to Coolgardie via a slightly different route than when we went to Kalgoorlie.  There isn't much in the quaint little town, but the museum in the old courthouse in the main street was open.  We ended up spending around 2 hours in the museum as it was so interesting.


We drove around the streets and went out to a lookout over the town before heading off for Esperance.  On arrival at Esperance, we checked into the van park on the waterfront and went out to do some grocery shopping.  Once again at the shopping centre, we bumped into Tony and Sue Lawson (we saw them first at Streaky Bay).  They (and Sue's parents) had been camped at Duke of Orleans Caravan Park around 90kms out of Esperance, but were now checking into the same park as us for a few days.
