Woomera

It's a town in the desert where they used to house all the people who worked on the missile testing range, since they don't do that anymore it's a bit deserted. They do have a small museum too look around if you're interested in that type of thing, there's also quite a few missile's and test planes on display in the town centre. It's also home to a large number of refugees who decided to come to Oz, makes a change from the UK I suppose. You can't see them though as they're all locked up in a detention centre further out of town.

We didn't stay here, it's just somewhere to stop to break up the long journey to Coober Pedy.
