Charters Towers

We bought  cd from the tourist info place in town that gives you an audio tour of the local area. It was $15- well spent. Place the cd in the incar player and push play and follow the instructions and map they also give you, pausing cd when told. A great tour that covered all the local history including a gold battery, parks with commemorative plaques therein and also historic buildings with their story, great value. Other towns could take a leaf from the Charters towers book. Return the cd for a $10- refund. Is that good or what?

Day 2 here and we caught up with our WA friends Ivan and Chris. A walk around the shops, slightly disappointing from the fact that all Opp shops seem to close at 1.00pm. We had to do lunch first of course...Anyway we are heading off tomorrow to Hughenden and the dinosaur trail.
