Coober Pedy was not really what I had expected it to be... Instead, it was a desolate, bleak, hot and dusty hole. It was stinking hot and the flies were almost unbearable!!! When we first arrived in town and saw two people with nets over their hats and heads we both almost laughed and said what a couple of sissys they were... We bought nets about an hour later.... Seriously....
Nasty.....
