Bottoms up!

After rain is a good time for fossicking - even better when the sun is out. 

Call us keen cos we went during the rain while the sky was still overcast!

How does one fossick?  It's not hard.  Just walk around staring at the many rocks on the ground, hoping to spot one with "colour"!  Nick thought ahead this trip and brought his older "close-up" glasses because they focus a bit further away than his current pair, so work better for fossicking. 

I found a couple of small opal pieces then wandered off to take photos until the rain got too hard and my would-be rock-lickers came back to the car, so we could head home for lunch!
