Broken Hill, a city steeped in Australian history and legend, is the ideal stopping off point for those that want to explore the Australia Outback. This is the story of a couples visit to Broken Hill and how they made a number of amazing discoveries about the city and its environment. They discovered the history of BHP, Australia's largest mining company and learned about the role that Broken Hill played in the formation of the union movement in Australia. They visited the Flying Doctor Service and the School of the Air. They visited the galleries of a number of Australia's most popular artists and learned why Outback art has become so popular. They met Jack Absalom, one of Australia's most prolific landscape artists.
They visited the remote and beautiful Menindee Lakes and stayed on a station situated on the banks of the Darling River that once ran 100,000 sheep and 10,000 cattle. They learned that driving in the Outback has its challenges and why those folks that choose to tack the Outback need to well prepared and resourceful. They loved the Outback stories told around the campfire and we held spellbound by the nightly lightshow of a million stars.
