Entry to the gold mine
We all panned for gold and we found some small specks. We were allowed to keep the gold we found.
Panning for gold

DAY 29 - 18/03/2010 - Batemans Bay, NSW
Today we went to a place called Gold Rush Colony in Old Mogo Town. Its an old community based in the Gold Rush era in the 1800's. We had a tour guide taking us around the place explaining how gold was mined, the machinery used in those days, the different occupations and how to pan for gold. We were lucky to be going around the same time as a group of school kids on their excursion because the tour was more in depth than usual.
