I have fallen head over heels in love with a nurse – what am I going to do, I want to stay in Mt Isa, but alas I would have to live underground for the rest of my life….
Today Murray, Brenda, Julia and I visited the underground hospital and museum. Built in 1942, following the bombing of Darwin, Mt Isa community felt it too may become a target for the Japanese.
The hospital was built by volunteers into a side of a mountain with beds, operating theatre, power and all the equipment and supplies needed to care for 100 patients.
Today you can visit the museum and have a tour underground.
Definitely worth a visit and a complimentary cup of tea or coffee.
