Day 14 This morning we did the Olympic Dam mine tour, first we saw a movie about BHP Billiton and how the mine started and how it works now. Then we got on a bus and drove around the top of the mine. We then got in the car and started to travel towards home, we travelled 544km's and arrived at Virginia about 8:15 that night.

Day 12 Today we drove to Andamooka to check out the old town. We went to the play ground and dad visited the mining office, my great grandad used to come here and look for opals. We looked at the old cottages and went noodling, I found a little piece of potch with opal in it but it was hard work.
