Broken Hill
Today we went to Day Dream Mine.
William just wanted to throw stones and explore it. Georgia was so brave seeing as she is afraid of the dark. It was filled with Micah and Silver.
They said that children from the age of 5-10 had to mine; and two years after that they would be blind.
After we went on the mine tour we went to the Broken Hill information centre.
We were looking through the window and mum spotted a famous train called the Indian Pacific.
It was soooooooooooo long! And they said it was only the small one! In the summer it is twice as big!
They let us have a look inside. The red kangaroo (economy) was so spectacular! And the gold kangaroo (first class) was to good for words!
It had round about 200 carriages.
