Mining in Sudbury, Ontario

Had a great time finding all about mining.




Pretty cool stuff.




It was very cool, damp and water was dripping everywhere.... And we were only 65 feet underground.





They used to use dynamite years ago.





Lots of big things were used.




This is what the miners' toilets looked like back in the day. Eeeeew!




That makes me feel safe.





By the end of the tour my hair was frizzing up from the dampness and I had a pounding headache (get them when the air pressure changes).

It was a fascinating tour. If you're ever in Sudbury Ontario, check it out!!!

Gotta take some ibuprofen.

I can't believe you were actually sitting on that old toilet - you should have had a good squat going. I know how much you like "public toilets"...glad you had a good time.
