Day 15.01 - Monday 3 July 2006

We read up on some interesting facts:

‘“Welcome to Kalgoorlie-Boulder” reads the sign at the edge of this remarkable town, located 597 km east of Perth. Here is a town built on gold over 100 years ago and is still basically driven by the same metal to this day. It is a prosperous town, with two city centers, Kalgoorlie and Boulder. Hanna Street in Kalgoorlie and Burt Street in Boulder are a feast of superb 19th and early 20th century buildings, which are still largely intact and well maintained.’
