It is a wierd spot Coober Pedy. Reminded me of Tattooine, Luke Skywalker’s home planet. Carolyn thought it looked like Total Recall.
This was Crocodile Harry’s place – where they filmed parts of Mad Max!
Anywhere 80% of people live in caves they have gotta be a bit eccentric, I guess. Spent the day checking out underground churches and houses, some dug by hand. One took 3 ladies 10 years! Who likes opals that much to want to live out in the middle of nowhere in a cave?
We slept underground in the mine at Ribas underground camping. Does that make us hobbits? Better go shave my toes.
Sounds like a perfect ‘Man Cave’!
