Hi Mick,
My wife went to that school and sat at those desks in that room, and lived about 200m from the school.
Another great video guy's.
Glad you enjoyed the videos, there would be a lot of memories and stories no doubt that could be told.
Lovely ,have come to know that your clips are awesome . My words do no justice . The coffee and homemade biscuit at the end is perfect though . Brilliant making to the baker 👍❤️🐾🫶
Thanks a lot 😊Sally spoils me sometimes with her cooking of biscuits.
8:30 I remember sitting in those exact desks. I was born in Wallaroo and lived in Moonta until i was 13. Was an amazing place to grow up.
every year in school, we would walk down to the museum and learn about the history of the Cooper coast. we would do an entire "lesson" in the museum at those desks.
if you ever go back.. visit the wetlands across the road from the hospital.. and Port Hughes
Cheers, will keep the wetlands in mind. We will be the again during early 2024.
Great episode. Will add Moonta bay to our list now.
Thank you, thanks for watching👍
I love ya shows I always enjoy them you guys do a great video thank you 👍
Our pleasure!
My wife and I lived in Adelaide for over three years and had the privilege of being resident in a state where such beauty is everywhere. Big love and thanks for your videos from Ipswich Queensland.
South Australia is blessed with some great locations, glad you liked it.
Bonsoir Mick. Merci pour cette nouvelle vidéo et la visite du musée de la mine de cuivre. A bientôt, JPhB from France.
Thanks for the visit JPhB 👍

I grew up in Liverpool UK and remember desks with ink wells but our school must have be posh because we had ab ink well each 😃 which we were responsible for keeping full. I also spent some time in Prospect, Adelaide when a mate I was travelling with worked at the Windmill hotel. Before that we worked a town called Newnan in WA. Really enjoy your videos and thanks for all the memories.
I think there would be some great stories to be told that would revolve around the ink wells, something that our kids would possibly not understand.
@@justcruisinwithmicksally837 I can still remember the scrubbing it took to get the ink off my fingers 😀
@@Scouse270 we had a lot of accidents with the ink wells, was great when we moved on to lead pencils.
Rippa Mick....Have ancient family members names in mines and schoolhouse. Knew I was of short stature for a reason...Volunteers need commending with the upkeep and safety measures at the old sites...top job by all, and not forgetting Sally and her skill with biscuits and coffee. And drone footage's by yours truly. Thanks again for rekindling old memories. Cheers.
Thanks Dennis, where would Australia be if it wasn't for our volunteers. Both tourism and emergency, they are the best.
Another nice video Mick and Sally. Some very pretty places in SA.
We are so lucky to have them.
Thanks for watching.
Thanks for sharing . very nice video work and excellent audio.
Looks like another place to put on my itinerary when I travel later in the year.
Cheers, thanks for watching.
What an interesting place to visit!!
Lots of history there, visit if you ever get the opportunity.
We have been going over there for decades, including when the kids were little, and stayed in the old cabins that were up on the hill a lot of the time.
Sort of a shame to see all of the vegetation gone as there used to be families of blue wrens that would come hop around the cabins when we were having a morning coffee.
Also a bit sad to see most of the permanent sites gone as they were part of history and the same with all the modern two story boxes that have been built on the foreshore in both directions cluttering up the views.
Progress marches on I guess.
I remember in the early days going out on the jetty in the morning and the water was glassed out and you could see everything in the water and on the bottom, it was delightful.
Plenty of wind the last few times we have been.
The history over that way is great as are the fish and chips at the Port Hughes store.
Brings back some memories and hopefully we will get over there again at some point.
Thanks for the video.
Glad you liked the video. The fish and chips at Port Hughes are to die for👍
We were at Moonta Bay a while ago and it was intersting to see all the new cabins finished, and the site that you were on is now open, enjoyed the mine train trip, that will be on our next visit! Shame bout the weather you had, but never the less its still great to get away.
The new cabins certainly would offer great sea views. Was nice to be there when it wasn't very hot as it normally is when we visit during Jan/Feb each year.
Thanks Mick. We went through Moonta a couple of years ago, had a look around but didn't take the train ride. That was a mistake. We will do it next time. Like "watchy" below my great grand parents migrated from Cornwall to work at Moonta mines.
There must be so much history there that may relate to more of us than we realize. The train ride was much better than what I thought it was going to be.
Great content.
My dads grandparents moved to Moonta from Cornwall and worked in the mines. I have a large album of letters of my great grandfathers. He started rallying for better working conditions for the miners writing to the government back in Adelaide. Unlike telephone and email these days the turn around or reply was generally around 3 months.
Moonta cemetery has an extremely large section just for infants. Times were tough and disease was rampant.
It would have been a tough life back in the mining days. It sounds like you have some great history to look back on.
That looks a great place. Heading to my brother's in Adelaide for Easter so we may be able to do a trip over there. Cheers Cheryl 🙂
One of South Australia's many gems 😬
one of the best fishing jetties aswel Moonta is.
A very hot tourist destination for sure.
Nice to see this old mining site. I used to work in the copper mine in Cobar NSW a very long time ago so this still has all my interest.
Glad you enjoyed it
That whole area is just beautiful. We had a permanent caravan for many years at Wallaroo caravan park
It really is, thanks for watching.

You live in a great part of South Australia but it has been a few years now since we have eaten at any of the pubs there.
