What I love about old Australian country towns is that often the beautiful old colonial buildings have escaped the wrecker's ball.
On our drive from Adelaide to Broken Hill we stopped off last night in Burra, an old South Australian mining town. The country motel in which we rested our heads was one of the few modern buildings we sighted on our sortie around the town.
Many of the colonial buildings that remain in the town have been repurposed to serve the tourists like us who stay overnight or linger for a few days.
