Silverton

We woke up in the morning and had some breakfast. After that we left to go to Silverton. We drove along a road where there was a ip nearly every five hundred metres. After a while we reached the Mad Max 2 Museum. We got out of the car and payed.

We had a look around and for your information Mad Max is a movie. In my opinion it's gruesome. After a while we left and two donkeys were on the road. After that we called into the Daydream Mine. We did an underground tour too.

We got our hard hats and lights and walked down. This, if you didn't know, was a silver mine. People used to work in the mine by candlelight. Our guide also showed us what an eight year old would look like in the mine. The figure had real mice on crawling around on its shoulder too.

The rock was held up by tree stumps and they had built a railing so you could lean on it. We had a look at the shafts and went into this big room. Our guide got us to turn our lights of and lit a candle. We got used to the dimness and the guy showed us how people in the mine used to work.

Eight year olds were hired to do work down shafts sound half a metres tall. That was until you weren't allowed to work in the mines until you were eighteen. We were soon back in the bright sunlight though. We had some scones and then left.

We drove back to Broken Hill and went to have a milkshake. Dad and I had a thickshake and it was SO thick!! After that we went to the Geological Museum. We had a tour around the miners cottage and found out loads about rocks.

We also saw the Sliver Tree. After that we drove to do a bit of shopping and then went back to the caravan. We wrote our journals and had a delicious dinner lentils and noodles. Then we were in bed like usual getting sleep for another day.
