Greetings from Kalgoorlie:)

Hi All,

Well our week of prospecting with Chris and Kevin finished today and they have gone to travel home.  We have had such a great week and stayed at some beautiful bush spots.

We had a great couple of nights just outside of Mt magnet and watched the eclipse and it was so clear it was very bright.  We then moved onto Niagara Dam 9 kms before the ghost town of Kookynie and what a great spot.  You can swim in the dam, go bushwalking, there is a day picnic area and loads of different camping areas.  We will def go there again.

Then we spent the last 2 nights at Lake Douglas 10 kms past Kalgoorlie and another fantastic camp.

Oh both have toilets too which are very clean:)

We met a couple Mal and Val whose mate lives at  Bouldercombe Qld (where Shane lives) small world hey!!
He does prospecting and took Andrew and Kev out for a couple of hours but still nothing hahaha.
I don't know all the gear and no idea hahahahahaha.

We are staying in a caravan park in Kalgoorlie tonight to charge everything up and fill the water tanks as we start our trek over the Nullabor tomorrow.  We will stay at the Fraser rest stop tomorrow night and then on we go.
Look out Deb and Pete we are on our way to Wyalla!!!!!!!

Saw my first live Witchety Grub in the bush today as we all packed up camp..........mmmm juicy lol, I don't think so hahahahaha.

Hope everyone at home is well and we miss you all so much I don't know how I am going to go for the next 8-9 weeks lol, but I haven't had any moments yet !!  Also it is bloody fantastic NOT SWEATING hahahahaha good old HRT my saviour :)

Well bye for now as we are going to make the most of a long hot shower while we can hahahaha (I have had to wash my hair in a bucket outside the van to not use too much water) so it will be lovely tonight :)
Oh and Andrew's beard, eyebrows and lashes are all ok hahahahaha!!!

Til next time

Loads and loads of love and kisses to Kalani, Zavier and Alanis xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
