SixLarkins Half Lap 2.0

We ended up skipping the border free camp and stayed at a powered site stop in Marla. Then next day quick drive to Coober Pedy. A little town in the middle of nowhere and flat dessert all around us, however we actually really enjoyed it! It’s actually a very interesting town. We did a tour that took us around town with first stop the museum, learnt about the history and its discovery. Then got to walk through dug put houses, the old and the new and also the mines

Next stop was an orthodox underground church and it was absolutely stunning!

Following this we went to the longest fence is the world, the dingo fence. The ground around the site is very similar to mats (when it hasn’t down-poured with rain encouraging the green bushes to grow!) very metallic rocks which sounded pretty cool when you clunk them together. A lot of movies are filmed out here.

Last stop was the breakaways which looked nice but nothing jaw dropping to be honest. It was so windy and cold that we spent most of the stop in the bus talking to the tour guide who was showing us photos of here experiences which was pretty cool.

On our last day the sun was out and we decided to go check out crocodile Harry’s dug out house, it featured on travel guides, was really weird to be honest. Then we spent the day looking for opals in the public area that you are able to dig through safely without falling down a mine! We found slices of opal in rocks but nothing major, it was still really fun. Had a nice lunch with beautiful views.
