Perth. Loved it, my kids were born there.


Best beaches, worst drivers...

The Indian Pacific - my idea of a dream break.


 


Just need to find the time to take the break 😞

I have to agree with you about Kalgoorlie, Joz. We lived there for two years in the 70s and I can remember breaking more than one garden hose by driving over it when it was frozen solid.


 


the Warden's Court in Coolgardie is one of the most beautiful buildings in Australia. Sadly though the  town is a bit of a ghost town these days - or it was when I last visitCouparCoupar few years ago. Kalgoorlie is booming though.

Just googled Warden's Court, stunning

Should add I was a child when we drove through Coolgardie so don't remember Warden's Court

What year did they fix up the road I think I went when the South Australian road was still unmade :^O

I cant stand Kalgoorlie. I agree Joz, Kal gets very cold, but it had nothing on NYE 2011 in Collie. I have never been so cold in my life. Busselton at Easter was pretty cold at night too.

I travelled to Port Pirie on the Indian Pacific.  1st class no less 😄  It was such a nice trip and talk about miles and miles of desert, then yes there was plenty of that.


 


It was beautiful emptiness and the stars at night were amazing.  


 


Then from Adelaide to Melbourne on the other train which might have been the Overlander.  Or that might have been the one from Sydney to Melbourne which I have also ridden.

Are there any complaints about the heat?

Is it dry heat or humid heat?
