Rock Swap

We're old hands now (one rock swap already under out belts), but the Canberra Rock Swap was just as much fun in 2013. Sieving for sapphires, dreaming of that perfect matrix, buying gaudy bracelets.

Here's the one low moment, when the bargain hunter who had spent the whole morning determining the best buy (a piece of azurite, brilliantly blue, for just $5) momentarily gave up on ever finding his treasure again.

We did eventually find the stall, a happy ending.
