Thursday 7th November - Rolleston to Moura
A bit warmer last night - only 15.3, but a hot day with 37.8, and yes, I did have the aircon on once we reached Moura. We left just after 10am and travelled on the Dawson Highway. A very straight road, but bumpy at times too. Parts of the road have signs saying to drive in the middle of the road, unless over taking. Now that's a first for us. Thankfully we had no on coming traffic during this section of the highway. A small town, bigger than Rolleston, with lots of mining cars in the caravan park. It's called the Moura Accommodation Village and it's $30.00 a night. Lots of prefab cabins here, no doubt for the miners use and possibly for other guests who want one. They were predicting 34 today, but at 2pm it reached the high of 37. Very hot today, but I have the aircon on. Even Clive spent time indoors in the afternoon. When checking in, Clive was told we could have dinner in the mess if we want. Only $15.00 per head, cash only. When driving along we could see this 'white' in the distance. This turned out to be one of the open cut mines that are around here.
