New Norcia Hotel
Our camp site behind the petrol station
The view from our camp.
( Found a twenty dollar note in the long grass just here)
Went for a nice walk on the first day
On the second day we did the tour (See map below)
You can pay some one to take you around
or just follow the signs your self
Lots of interesting things to photograph
The Monks make olive oil, bread, wine and a delicous nut cake (Go directly to the gift shop)
Beautiful stained glass window in the shrine (below)
The church has lots of beautiful paintings in it.
View of the back of the Monestary.
Over view of New Norcia: Great palce to wander around exploring. It has a great feel about it. Loads of character & history. I love the architecture and art. Not sure if the indiginous people would agree with the way their ancestors were cared for, however I would hope that their best interests were addressed.
(Every one is different right?)
Would not stay over night ever as the road trains go through every 10 to 30 minutes even durring the night. So very noisy in that respect. (We barely got any sleep! We had planned to stay two nights but left the next morning feelingt exhausted & not very well rested at all!)
Would definately visit agin but only as a day trip! Or stay out of town!
Thanks for visiting my blog MX
