Geoffs Life After Work !

Cobar via Wilcannia Broken Hill and Silverton 2

We are staying over an extra night simply because we like the isolation of this place. On day 2 we ventured the 50km return trip into Broken Hill using the Car only WOW !! Next we did a tour of a mining and dolls museum (unusual mix) having lots of artifacts and things to do with dolls on display Next we visited the Mad Max 2 exhibition ( The movie was filmed in this area and this exhibition was organized by a bloke from Bradford whom I chatted with) Razorback, Priscilla the Queen of the Desert and Town Like Alice are among quite a few movies made in this very place We then had lunch in a very quaint, clean cafe that also had artifacts from a bygone era on display PLUS the food was quite nice After our food fill we visited the old original Gaol that is jam packed with things and stories from when Silver ton had a population of 3000 (now 70) run by volunteers and very reasonably priced entry fee ,We are now back at bus base relaxing from our very strenuous day
