Day 5

  3rd August

Yowah

Easy day today, cooked brekky and looked around town took about 10 minutes. Ended up at the only general store chatting to the locals.

Artesian Bore

Bathhouse

The town water is supplied by an artesian bore 450m deep, 57 degreesC it was drilled in 1911 and is still working fine. They have a bathhouse here that uses the hot bore water for arthritis etc. New owners are brightening up the town as you can see!!!!
 One wanted us to move here. Yowah has a population of 60 mostly miners with beards and hair to their waist but they need a plumber. Not my idea of paradise!!
Went on a opal mine tour, open cut and underground. Very interesting. Saw the sunset from the only hill for miles .One plus there is great internet coverage here!!!!!

Splitting for an opal.
