Kalgoorlie Part II {Caravan Park - Working)

A month.

It is hard to believe that we have been in sunny Kalgoorlie for a month already.  Time really does fly when you are having fun.

Which given we are in Kalgoorlie and at a Caravan Park we had been.  Amazing what meeting some wonderful peeps can do for ones moral. We didn't really do much other than another photo taking afternoon drive, eating, drinking & loads of talking.

Knowing that the McCann's where heading off in a few days meant we had a great weekend celebrating all our time together but sadly the celebrations came to an abrupt end, as did our time in Kalgoorlie.

Kalgoorlie Part I {Caravan Park - Working}

Two weeks today we have been at the caravan park, time really is flying.

We have seen out the last week of school holidays, J has started work, we have visited the Superpit a few times, the lookout over the town, driven around and checkout some of the amazing buildings but by far the most exciting is deciding to start the smalls in school!

 

 

 

 

 

 

OH, I almost forgot we also had a trip to the cinema's on the last day of the school holidays.  The smalls & I watched Turbo and they enjoyed every minute of it.  Who would have thought a movie about a snail could be so good.

I have again fallen in love with some buildings, with the history and more importantly my favourite building in Boulder is still for sale & almost $100k cheaper!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I really could spend every spare minute that I have taking pictures of these beautiful buildings. {Even more enthusiasm to do so with my new camera}

The boys were very happy that the afternoon we decided to go to the Superpit to see a blast, it was a very big one and looked true amazing {even to me, an anti-hole-in-the-ground person}.

 

 

 

 

Given that we are in town for six weeks more, with J working we decided to put the smalls into school for this time to give us all a break.  They are LOVING every minute of it after a week, which is great for all of us!

We topped off this last week with a wonderfully interesting night with our new neighbours {well over the road ones anyways} and a quiet night last night with delivered pizza.  Perfect end given the terrible change in the weather.

Can't wait to see what the next few weeks will bring us.

Kalgoorlie {Visiting}

Arriving in town during the school holidays and earlier than planned {for work} we crashed with my cousin and her family for a few days. Going right to Raelene's house also meant that I got all of the parcels that I had sent to her, the most exciting was my NEW camera!

We had a wonderful time, ate too much and drank too much but relaxed some which was nice.

 

 

Sunday saw us taking a drive out to a dam {& old townsite}.  A BBQ lunch, playing children and catching yabbies was a great way to spend the day.

A pack down and short drive to our next stop, all of 10 minutes away {if that}!

Goodbye Kalgoorlie {Caravan Park - Work}

One thing that I will miss about Kalgoorlie, the amazing sunsets, lovely old buildings and parks.  It doesn't nothing for my desire to have an old house again, to live in something that has character and to show it new life.

There is actually a fabulous looking 'Bank of Australia' building that is for sale in Boulder but sadly not something we would ever consider buying because, well it is in Boulder and that is not really somewhere I would like to live forever.

It is hard to believe that we have been in Kalgoorlie for more than a month, time has flown in one way and dragged by in another sense.  Living in a caravan park for this long has been one of the downfalls, we have stayed places for a month of more before but it has felt different to this. I am well and truly ready to move onto our next location.
