Sherwood Diary: Norseman to Yerdani Well Rest Area

On the journey yesterday we had an excellent bacon and egg sandwich at Widgiemooltha which surprised us as the roadhouse is so shabby. The coffee was good as well.

At the Balladonia Space Museum a couple of days ago.
Breakfast at the Norseman RV park yesterday, quite a contrast to the night before.

Coolgardie has a dump point and drinking water taps and we made use of them before driving on.

We had lunch at a place called The Gorge just before Coolgardie yesterday. There was no water in the reservoir and we could only just make out the little gorge through bushes.

Not a really big gorge. I looked on Google Maps satellite view to see if it was further away, but I think this is it.
Anyway it was a good spot for lunch and we some sunshine.

Sherwood Diary: Woorbla Homestead to Norseman

On the way to Norseman we stopped at Balladonia for hot drinks and our usual order of a bacon and egg toastie to share. We had a look around the museum as well.

We arrived in Norseman in time to go to the Tourist Bureau for tokens to get water. They were apologetic, but the power to the water point was off. She suggested trying the service stations who would allow us to fill up for a small donation. We wanted water fairly urgently so went to the Ampol station. We would have bought fuel as well. But they were out of diesel.

Of course, we also went to the supermarket as well and stocked up a bit. It was fortunate that there were still a few places left at the free camping spot and despite arriving late after visiting the dump point we were able to get a spot.

Still finding our adopted clothes aider useful. When driving it stands behind the driver’s seat and is ready to be deployed at our next camp site.
The other Sherwood. It’s a 2009 model and looks almost exactly the same as ours, except for the blue wrap over the nose that ours has.
