It would be lovely to read your opal outback story of what experiences and encounters you had  in your "opal travels" -  and by all means let us know of any travelling tips that you feel will help those that are doing (or thinking of doing),  their own opal journey.



* Here is an interesting
Story of A Cooberpedy "Postie"!




Our Opal  Mining towns in Australia definitely are fascinating and uniqueOpal Factory,Cooberpedy places; Lightning Ridge, the South Australian Cooberpedy Opal Fields or the Queensland Boulder Opal towns of Quilpie,Yowah, Winton, Opalton or Koroit - each with their own distinct flavour and character and their own brand of opal magic!
