Mt Isa

This morning we did a tour of the Underground Hospital.  It was built during WWII as they thought there was a possibility the Japs may have bombed Mt Isa to get to the lead.  Fortunately it never happened and the hospital was never used.

We had morning tea at Lake Moondarra about 16ks out of town.  MIM built the dam to provide a better water supply to Mt Isa
Tomorrow we are heading to Burke & Wills Roadhouse.
This was the men's ward of the Underground Hospital

Lake Moondarra looking to where we had morning tea.  They have life savers at the "beach" in summer
