2004trip - Part 4, Coober Pedy, South Australia .

It is still raining... From Cobar we went on to Dubbo and Bathurst, where we visited Mt. Panorama and drove around the circuit where quite a few people were working, getting the track ready for the big race. We stayed here for two days. We went to the Historic Village in Sofala where in 1888 there were 25,000 people but today only 72 remain. From there we drove to an old gold mine at Hill End. They conduct mine tours here and have many historic buildings.
