Our driver filled us in on local history as we drove through town. Our first stop was at “the gap” – nothing but water between Australia and New Zealand.

Then we stopped at Bondi Beach.

Mrs Macquarie’s Chair is another Sydney landmark. The chair was carved by convicts in 1810 for Governor Macquarie’s wife.

Our last stop of the morning was the National Opal Museum (mostly gift shop). They have a dinosaur that was opalized.
