I arrived safely in Mt Isa on Wednesday evening. Was a long day - Melbourne - Brisbane - Mt Isa. I think I am in the middle of nowhere!!! However the sun is shining, skies are blue and I woke up this morning feeling pretty good.
I can't tell you too much about Mt Isa as I haven't really seen much of it. I am working at a women's refuge and living there too. Just been to shops to get some groceries ands that's about it. Seemed busy in town yesterday afternoon. Seems many work places close early on a Friday and it may have been pay day.
If you don' know where MT Isa is it is near the Queensland/Northern territory border. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Isa,_Queensland - check it out.. I am very close to the mine, can see it from my backyard.
I am sharing the unit with another woman - she is easy going , so that's good!! Accommodation is quite comfortable, no lovely views as in Cairns, but I love seeing the blue sky each morning when I wake up even if it is quite cool. Reminds me of our days in Harare Zimbabwe withe the cool evenings and the lovely warm days. The Bougainvillea plants are magnificent brilliant colours.
No photos as yet.. but it's early days have only just unpacked and got settled.
Till next time....
