Day 5: Kalgoorlie

Today was so hot.

Pop spent around three hours tweaking Henry and in the end he found that the points had little or no gap so he cleaned them up and increased the gap and it was like magic. He wouldn't take any money from us so we insisted he had a few bottles of wine we collected in Margaret River.

So that was that, finally everything was good and we could leave.

We pulled into Bunnings to pick up some fly screen for our door and my window wouldn't wind back up. This was recently fixed by a mechanic so this was not a good sign!

Back at the caravan site Oly fixed the window and we did lots of other little things that really needed doing... then I noticed our tent frame had broken. This was getting ridiculous, what next! I am starting to think that Kalgoorlie is like the Bermuda Triangle and we will never leave.

We are attempting to get to Laverton tomorrow, its 360km NE further into the outback and there is not alot between Kalgoorlie and it except for about 10 ghost towns.

Wish us luck!
