My road trip 'PART 1'


Well we got up early in the morning to start our roadtrip to the east coast of Australia, it was gonna be a long trip. Just at sun up we pulled over for a look at the old water pipe, which runs all the way to Kalgoorlie.











Along the way we had a gander at the old train water tower, which is in the township of Merredin.











Our best stop was at Coolgardie where we played in a bush park, as you can see it's full of old bush machinery which has been here for years.

Here I am having a gander at the sail boats that are docked at Toronto sailing wharf, it's pretty cool having a look at all the different sail boats.
