Our first day at Carnarvon we did the obligatory Op shop visit then drove out to the famous 1 mile Jetty & Heritage Precinct. Here we checked out the Railway Museum & the Shearers Museum & Hall of Fame.
Although small the Museum was interesting, we read all about the Mad Eight, the best shearing team ever, they shore over 250,000 sheep in 9 months with the Ringer regularly shearing over 300 a day.
We then checked out the Satellite Earth Station & Museum, it is a fantastic place which played a major communications role in the first moon landing, the boys loved this place, there was heaps to do for kids & adults.
