Powerhouse Museum
Yesterday I took a bus over to Darling Harbour and visited the Powerhouse Museum. It's a huge museum dedicated to advances in technology and design that have occurred over Australia's history. For a huge and impeccably maintained museum, the Powerhouse didn't really have many interesting exhibits. Most of them were about the design of clothing and furniture, but there were two exhibits that were worth walking though. One was about the daily lives of Australians of all classes during the 19th century, and the other detailed the history of the Australian wool industry, which is now the world's largest and most successful. None of that stuff would have been interesting if it had been about America, but I enjoyed it because it was all new to me. I've added an album of pictures from the museum. There are also a couple of new pictures in the albums 'Random Places in Sydney' and 'Wildlife'.
