A few weeks ago I put in a
And this morning Rob suggested we take a drive to Opals Down Under .
It's one of those places that we have driven past a million times and I've often thought,
"One day we should have a look at that."
Well, today we did.
I checked out their website before we left and discovered they have a fossicking pit for kids to search for gems. When I told Isaac about it he was so excited he could barely contain himself. He was sure he was going to find gold!
We went inside and bought two $9 cups then let the kids loose in the fossicking pit.
Until they filled their little cups, which they were allowed to take home.
Ava is sitting on a block of rose quartz...it was very pretty! |
The good news is, yes Rob did buy me a birthday present....squeeeeeee!
But you'll have to wait until my birthday to see it!!
So I was very happy with our little visit to Opals Down Under.
And I was even happier when the kids played with, sorted and traded their gems for hours when we got home!
