New Norcia

Hi everyone, On Monday we visited the historical town of New Norcia. It is Australia's only monastic town, settled on the 19th century by the Benedictine Monks & still run by them as a community.  There are beautiful buildings there, unfortunately we couldn't take a tour as it was over 2 hours walking, a bit too much for Graeme. Apart from the museum, the tour was the only way to see inside these buildings. Heading into the town, again we had to move off the road for mining equipment heading north.
