Exploring an underground mine

We enjoyed going through the underground mining
museum. What hard work!

When they were digging out the hotel rooms in the place
we stayed in on our return trip (see the next posting for
a picture of the room), they discovered nearly 100,000
dollars worth of opals including solid opalized fossil shells.
Other miners work for 20 years and find very little.
