Tuesday 24th, January<\/em><\/p>\n

We left Silverton this morning after Mal had the pleasure of actually showering in the rain. He took his soap and enjoyed washing under one of their rare rain storms. We visited Pro Hart’s Gallery in Broken Hill. What a great artist he was. We then drove from Broken Hill to a small “Ghost Town” called Terowie in South Australia.<\/p>\n

In the early 1900’s it was a busy town as it was on the main train line. This train line closed in 1960, and the many incredible buildings shut up, as happened right throughout Australia, including Wilcannia as earlier mentioned. These buildings still stand in memory of these times. The only people we have met are a young Lebanese couple running the fuel stop. Tonight we are camped next to the old train station with the buildings still standing.<\/p>\n

It is now evening, 9pm and still very light, and we have no water. We have run dry….thanks Mal….no cup of tea, no shower, no toilet (lucky we have a shovel), no clean the teeth (I will use his beer for that…??????). Lucky we have plenty of bottled water, but really???<\/p>\n
