South Australia 20 May 2023

Saturday morning and there's more rain, but we headed to Kadina for the fair, maypole dancing and furry dancing. There was also the judging of the Jack and Jenny Competition. 

War Memorial gate at the entrance to the Park where the fair was held

I couldn't resist these two little cuties


A lot of work went into creating these costumes





The Maypole Dancers lined up for their photo

Furry Dancing

We had lunch then took the Kadina mines drive.


Wallaroo Cemetery

The sky looks ominous but treats us to a rainbow


Last stop for the day was the Moonta Mining Museum.






This is the Hotel we are staying at, but taken years ago when it was called 'The Globe Hotel'

A very sad story highlighted, being that of Elizabeth Woolcock, the only woman every hanged in South Australia, for allegedly murdering her abusive husband.



There is more to the story here.

Outside lots of old mining equipment was displayed.
