The further south we go the cooler it is overnight and we woke to 3.5C.
 |
| That almost looks like frost on our windscreen. |
This was our first time to Lightning Ridge.
 |
| Of course we 'had' to have a dip in the free hot pool. It was fabulous. |

 |
| About the 'Old Town'. |
 |
| The country is pretty dry and dusty. |
 |
| But there are lots of interesting places to see, like this rock house. |
 |
| Or a rock castle - Ridge Castle. |
 |
| Or a bottle sculpture. |
 |
| Or a huge prickly pear. |
 |
| Mullock heaps. |
 |
| More rock castles. |
 |
| We were following the 'car door self-guided driving tour' |
 |
| Ion Idriess took up this opal mine on Lunatic Hill. |
 |
