Early morning in Moonta

It’s cool and sunny. We had the early morning swim with the tide right in. Water temperature perfect. Then there was just enough time for breakfast and a look around town. Now on the bus back to Adelaide.

Moonta street signs feature these symbols of its mining history. Wombats are included as their diggings were responsible for the discovery of copper.

Red pillar boxes are still in use around the town.
