Sydney Zoo

We began today with a visit to an opal showroom. Opal is the Australian national gem. After viewing a short video about opal mining, we were subject to a very soft sell. Beautiful gems, but I didn't buy anything.

Our next stop was the Sydney Zoo. Although the zoo has typical zoo animals, our guided tour focused on indigenous Australian animals. Here are a few pics.

Tasmanian Devil
